The Siamese Cat Song: Words by
Peggy Lee
We are Siamese if you
please (meow)
We
are Siamese if you don't please (meow)
Now we looking over our new
domicile
if
we like we stay for maybe quite a while
whisper
Do you see that
thing swimming round and round?
Yesssssssss maby we could reach in and make it
drown
If we sneak in not to fool it carefully.
There will be a head for
you a tail for me
whisper
continued... Do you hear what I hear?
(grrrrrr)
A baby cry!
Where we finding baby there are milk
nearby.
If we look in baby buggy there could be
Plenty milk for you and also some for me
The words are some of
the most unusual in popular music. Peggy Lee is trying
use the voice of the cats - and English is certainly
not their first language!
There are quite a few grammatical mistakes - can you
spot them?
