Prologue: Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats - The Musical Orchestra

Are you blind when you're born

Can you see in the dark

Dare you look at a king

Would you sit on his throne

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

Are you cock of the walk when you're walking alone

Because Jellicles are and Jellicles do

Jellicles do and Jellicles would

Jellicles would and Jellicles can

Jellicles can and Jellicles do

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

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

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

Do you know how to go to the Heaviside Layer

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

Can you ride on a broomstick to places far distant

Familiar with candle with book and with bell

Were you Whittington's friend The Pied Piper's assistant

Have you been an alumnus of Heaven and Hell

Are you mean like a minx Are you lean like a lynx

Are you keen to be seen when you're smelling a rat

Were you there when the pharaohs commissioned the sphinx

If you were and you are you're a Jellicle cat

We can dive through the air like a flying trapeze

We can turn double sumersaults 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

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

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
