[00:07.750] Macavity
[00:21.880] Ha Ha Ha Ha
[01:06.810] Macavity's a mystery cat
[01:09.310] He's called the Hidden Paw
[01:12.060] For he's a master criminal who can defy the law
[01:18.130] He's the bafflement of Scotland Yard
[01:21.430] The Flying Squad's despair
[01:24.280] And when they reach the scene of crime
[01:27.500] Macavity's not there
[01:42.130] Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like Macavity
[01:47.730] He's broken every human law
[01:50.470] He breaks the law of gravity
[01:53.390] His powers of levitation would make a fakir stare
[01:59.040] And when you reach the scene of crime
[02:02.430] Macavity's not there
[02:04.870] You may seek him in the basement
[02:08.170] you may look up in the air
[02:12.800] But I tell you once and once again
[02:15.550] Macavity's not there
[02:18.530] Macavity's a ginger cat
[02:21.400] He's very tall and thin
[02:24.290] You would know him if you saw him
[02:27.220] For his eyes are sunken in
[02:30.200] His brow is deeply lined in thought
[02:33.190] His head is highly domed
[02:36.230] His coat is dusty from neglect
[02:39.280] his whiskers are uncombed
[02:42.160] He sways his head from side to side
[02:45.180] With movements like a snake
[02:47.920] And when you think he's half asleep
[02:50.870] He's always wide awake
[02:53.980] Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like Macavity
[02:59.530] For he is a fiend in feline shape
[03:02.230] A monster of depravity
[03:04.990] You may meet him in a by-street
[03:07.870] you may see him in the square
[03:10.810] But when a crime's discovered then
[03:13.860] Macavity's not there!
[03:17.240] He's outwardly respectable
[03:22.450] I know he cheats at cards
[03:28.400] And his footprints are not found in any files of Scotland Yard's
[03:40.360] And when the larder's looted
[03:42.910] Or the jewel cases rifled
[03:45.800] Or when the milk is missing
[03:48.520] Or another Peke's been stifled
[03:51.700] Or the greenhouse glass is broken
[03:56.110] And the trellis past repair
[03:59.300] There's the wonder of the thing
[04:02.410] Macavity's not there!
[04:04.940] Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like Macavity
[04:10.580] There never was a cat of such deceitfulness and suavity
[04:16.040] He always has an alibi and one or two to spare
[04:21.310] Whatever time the deed took place
[04:24.650] Macavity wasn't there!
[04:27.160] And they say that all the cats whose wicked deeds are widely known
[04:32.540] I might mention Mungojerrie, Rumpleteazer, Griddlebone
[04:39.120] Are nothing more than agents
[04:41.860] For the cat who all the time just controls the operations
[04:47.560] The Napoleon of Crime!
[04:53.400] Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like Macavity
[04:59.100] For he is a fiend in feline shape
[05:01.720] A monster of depravity
[05:04.510] You may meet him in a by-street
[05:07.070] you may see him in the square
[05:10.120] But when a crime's discovered then
[05:12.650] Macavity's not there!
[05:16.380]
