Katzen Brauchen Viel Musik [Everybody Wants To Be A Cat] [English translation]

Cats need an awful lot of music

Music and a little bit of luck. And more!

Everybody loves cat music and whistles straight away

The other music is just a waste.

The wrong chord and you go overboard,

That sounds mean.

If the music is atonal, it soon becomes an ordeal

That can be cruel!

It is best not to listen.

As a cat musician you only have proper swing

Even fine people want to free themselves from compulsion

And would love to be kittens

The wrong chord and you go overboard,

That sounds mean.

[O'Malley:]

Oh, rinky, tinky, tinky!

[Cats]

If the music is atonal, it soon becomes an ordeal

That can be cruel!

[Marie:]

Oh, winky, tinky, tinky!

[Cats]

Cats need an awful lot of music

Music and a small piece of great luck.

And if you love Jazz then you are welcome to see us

Because even in Jazz cats are the top

(Now it is joked that the walls wobble!)

(Cheers, excitement, cheerfulness)

Cats need, cats need

Cats need an awful lot of music!

Hallelujah, Cats need, Cats need,

Cats need an awful lot of music!

That makes the mood! Cats need,

Cats need, Cats need,

An awful lot of music,

Yeah, cats need, cats need

cats need an awful lot of music

Cats need, Cats need,

cats need an awful lot of music.

Hallelujah, Cats need, Cats need,

Cats need an awful lot of music!
