The Rum Tum Tugger
The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat
If you offer me pheasant
I would rather have grouse
If you put me in a house
I much prefer a flat
If you put me in a flat
Then I much prefer a house
If you set me on a mouse
Then I only want a rat
If you set me on a rat
Then I’d rather chase a mouse
The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat
And there isn’t any call for me to shout it
For he will do as he do
And there’s no doing anything about
a-wow-wowt it!
The Rum Tum Tugger is a terrible bore
When you let me in then I want to go out
I’m always at the wrong side
of every door
And soon as I get home
Then I’d like to get about
I like to lie in a bureau drawer
But I’ll make such a fuss if I can’t get out
The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat
And there isn’t any use for you to doubt it
For he will do as he do do,
And there’s no doing anything about
a-wow-wowt it!
The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious beast
My disobliging ways are a matter of habit
Now if you offer me fish,
Then I always want a feast
And if there isn’t any fish
Then I won’t eat the rabbit
If you offer me cream
Then I sniff and sneer
For I only like what I find for myself
No~
So you’ll catch me in it right up to my ears
And you pit it away on the larder shelf
The Rum Tum Tugger
is artful and knowing
The Rum Tum Tugger
doesn’t care for a cuddle
I’ll leap on your lap
in the middle of your sewing
For there’s nothing I enjoy
like a horrible muddle
The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat
The Rum Tum Tugger
Doesn’t care for a cuddle
The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat
And there isn’t any need for me to spout it
For he will do as he do do,
And there’s no doing anything abou-
Abou-wow-wow~~~
Abou-wow-wow-wow-wow
About it!

Rum Tum Tugger是隻奇特的貓
如果你給我山雞
我會情願要松雞
如果你把我放在屋子中
我會比較喜歡公寓
如果你把我放在公寓
我就會比較喜歡屋子
如果你把我放到大老鼠前面
我就只會要小老鼠
如果你把我放到小老鼠前時
我就情願去追大老鼠了
Rum Tum Tugger是隻奇特的貓
而我也沒有其他可以去叫的了
他會做像他會做的事
而那也是無可奈何的
Rum Tum Tugger是個極惹人厭的傢伙
如果你給我進去我就會要出去
我永遠都在每扇門錯的那邊
而當我一旦到家時
我就要想著四處亂晃
我喜歡躺到梳妝台的抽屜裡去
如果不讓我出去的話我就會弄得一團糟
Rum Tum Tugger是隻奇特的貓
而那是用不著你去懷疑的
他會做像他做的事
那也是無可奈何的
Rum Tum Tugger是隻奇特的怪獸
我那無禮的行為只是習慣問題
如果你現在給我魚
那我總是要頓大餐
如果那兒沒有魚的話
那我是不會吃兔子的
如果你給我牛奶
那我會嗅一下並冷笑
我只會喜歡由我喜歡找的東西
不要～
所以你會想抓著我耳朵的後面
並把它放到食物的架子亢
Rum Tum Tugger
是狡猾又聰明的
Rum Tum Tugger
不會把擁抱放在心上
我會飛過你的膝蓋
當你的縫紉工作做到一半的時候
那再沒有東西會令我高興
像弄得一塌胡塗
Rum Tum Tugger是隻奇特的貓
Rum Tum Tugger
不會把擁抱放在心上
Rum Tum Tugger是隻奇特的貓
我不用去裝腔作勢
而他會做像他所會做的事
而那也是無可奈何的
