Cat in the Hat

[Intro] I'm the feline in the spotlight, the whisper in the hall, With a purr that's a drum roll, I'm the ruler of this ball. When the morning nap is over and you're finally away, I prance onto the stage, it's time for my play! [Verse 1] With the sun's first light, I start my secret spree, Tipping cups and saucers, in a noisy revelry. Leaping high on the mantle, this is where I reign, There's no need to be shy, the world is just a game. [Verse 2] Curtains sway as I make my grandiose display, A circus act in fur, I'm the star of the day. Papers piled made to scatter, a delightful little clatter, In my whirlwind tour, I'm the legend of lore. [Chorus] I'm the cat in the hat, in my hidden cabaret, Where my heart's steady beat, marks the time of my ballet. Swing the graceful swing, with the day's sunny ray, Until you finally return, and we waltz the night away. [Verse 2] Curtains sway as I make my grandiose display, A circus act in fur, I'm the star of the day. Papers piled made to scatter, a delightful little clatter, In my whirlwind tour, I'm the legend of lore. [Chorus] I'm the cat in the hat, in my hidden cabaret, Where my heart's steady beat, marks the time of my ballet. Swing the graceful swing, with the day's sunny ray, Until you finally return, and we waltz the night away. [Bridge] We will walz all through the night, napping in between each fight, until the curtains fill with light, and you leave me to my delights [Verse] In the quiet of the noontide, I prowl the empty halls, Among the ticking clocks, I'm the jester who enthralls. In the vast and empty kingdom, sofa cushions are my throne, As I plot my next caper, no one to tell me not to roam. [Bridge] until the curtains fill with light, and you leave me to my delights [Verse] In the silence of the afternoon, I chase the fleeting shadows, Dancing with the dust motes, in the sunbeams' shallow halos. The houseplants are my jungle, where I stalk my unseen prey, In this quiet solitude, I'm the monarch of the day. [Verse] As twilight paints the sky, I watch the world outside, Dreaming of the moonlight, where my kindred spirits hide. But for now, I'm content to let my thoughts take flight, In the calm before the evening, in the soft and waning light. [Chorus] I'm the cat in the hat, in my hidden cabaret, Where my heart's steady beat, marks the time of my ballet. Swing the graceful swing, with the day's sunny ray, Until you finally return, and we waltz the night away. [Chorus] I'm the cat in the hat, in my hidden cabaret, Where my heart's steady beat, marks the time of my ballet. Swing the graceful swing, with the day's sunny ray, Until you finally return, and we waltz the night away. [Chorus Fade Out] I'm the cat in the hat, in my hidden cabaret, Where my heart's steady beat, marks the time of my ballet. Swing the graceful swing, with the day's sunny ray, Until you finally return, and we waltz the night away. [End]
