Andrew Lloyd Webber, `Cats` 1983 Broadway Cast - Prologue : Jellicle Songs For Jellicle Cats

Are you blind when you're born

Demeter
Can you see in the dark

Skimbleshanks
Can you look at a king

Asparagus
Would you sit on his throne

Rum Tum Tugger
Can you say of your bite that it's worse than your bark

Alonzo
Are you cock of the walk

Grizabella
When you're walking alone

Company
Because Jellicles are and Jellicles do
Jellicles do and Jellicles would
Jellicles would and Jellicles can
Jellicles can and Jellicles do

Jellylorum
When you fall on your head do you land on your feet

Coricopat
Are you tense when you sense there's a storm in the air

Jemima
Can you find your way blind when you're lost in the street

Old Deuteronomy
Do you know how to go to the Heaviside Layer

Company
Because Jellicles can and Jellicles do
Jellicles do and Jellicles can
Jellicles can and Jellicles do
Jellicles do and Jellicles can
Jellicles can and Jellicles do

Tantomille
Can you ride on a broomstick to places far distant

Jennyanydots and Victoria
Familiar with candle

Electra
With book and with bell

Bombalurina
Were you Whittington's friend

Mr Mistoffelees
The Pied Piper's assistant

Tumblebrutus
Have you been an alumnus of Heaven or Hell

We can dive through the air like a flying trapeze
We can turn double somersaults, bounce on a tire
We can run up a wall, we can swing through the trees
We can balance on bars, we can walk on a wire

Jellicles can and Jellicles do
Jellicles can and Jellicles do
Jellicles can and Jellicles do

Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats

Can you sing at the same time in more than one key
Duets by Rossini and waltzes by Strauss
And can you, as cats do, begin with a C
That always triumphantly brings down the house

Jellicle cats are queen of the nights
Singing at astronomical heights
Handling pieces from the Messiah
Hallelujah, angelical choir

The mystical divinity
Of unashamed felinity
Round the cathedral rang Vivat
Life to the Everlasting Cat
Feline, fearless, faithful and true
To others who do what

Jellicles do and Jellicles can
Jellicles can and Jellicles do
Jellicle cats sing Jellicle chants
Jellicles old and Jellicles new
Jellicle song and Jellicle dance

Pactical cats, Dramatical cats
Pragmatical cats, Fanatical cats
Oratorical cats, Delphicoracle cats
Skeptical cats, Dispeptical cats
Romantical cats, Penantical cats
Critical cats, Parasitical cats
Allegorical cats, Metaphorical cats
Statistical cats and Mystical cats
Political cats, Hypocritical cats
Clerical cats, Hysterical cats
Cynical cats, Rabbinical cats

Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats
Jellicle bells that Jellicles ring
Jellicle sharps and Jellicle flats
Jellicle songs that Jellicles sing
Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats

Asparagus
There's a man over there with a look of surprise
As much as to say Well now, how about that

Munkustrap
Do I actually see with my own very eyes
A man who's not heard of a Jellicle cat
What's a Jellicle cat

Company
What's a Jellicle cat
