Andrew Lloyd Webber, `Cats` 1983 Broadway Cast - Old Deuteronomy

Old Deuteronomy's lived a long time
He's a cat who has lived many lives in succession
He was famous in Proverb and famous in rhyme
A long while before Queen Victoria's accession

RUM TUM TUGGER
Old Deuteronomy's buried nine wives
And more -- I am tempted to say ninety nine
And his numerous progeny prospers and thrives
And the village is proud of him in his decline

MUNKUSTRAP
At the sight of that placid and bland physiognomy
At he sits in the sun on the vicarage wall
The oldest inhabitant croaks
Well, of all things, can it be really
Yes, no, ho, hi, oh my eye
My mind may be wandering but I confess
I believe it is Old Deuteronomy

RUM TUM TUGGER
Old Deuteronomy sits in the street
He sits in the high street on market day
The bullocks may bellow, the sheep they may bleat
But the dogs and the herdsmen will turn them away

MUNKUSTRAP
The cars and the lorries run over the curb
And the villagers put up a notice Road Closed
So that nothing untoward may chance to disturb
Deuteronomy's rest when he feels so disposed

RUM TUM TUGGER
The digestive repose of that feline's gastronomy
Must never be broken whate'er may befall

MUNKUSTRAP
And the oldest inhabitant croaks
Well, of all things, can it be really
Yes, no, ho, hi, oh my eye
My mind may be wandering but I confess
I believe it is Old Deuteronomy

COMPANY
Well, of all things, can it be really
Yes, no, ho, hi, oh my eye

OLD DEUTERONOMY
My legs may be tottery, I must go slow
And be careful of Old Deuteronomy
Old Deuteronomy's lived a long time
He's a cat who has lived many lives in succession
He was famous in Proverb and famous in rhyme
A long while before Queen Victoria's accession
