Smarty Party!
Welcome, darlings, to the fanciest cat show in town!
And our judge tonight is totally fair.
Woof.
Woof. Totally fair.
Persian coming through, darling, make some space,
Long silk coat and a flat little face.
Siamese, I was born almost white, it's true,
My coolest parts went dark and my eyes stayed blue.
Maine Coon, biggest cat in the show,
Three whole years and I still might grow.
Sphynx, you call me bald? That's peach fuzz, friend,
Warm as a hug from end to end.
Ears up. Tail high.
Eyes low. Eyes bright.
The judge says he's fair tonight.
Is he? Everybody ready? Walk!
Cat walk, walking on my toes, walking in a line,
Back paw lands where the front paw goes, keeping perfect time,
Fluffy, curly, spotty, bald, every breed can shine,
One kind of cat on the cat walk, and the spotlight's mine!
Front paw, back paw, hardly a sound,
Front paw, back paw, turn it around,
Front paw, back paw, hardly a sound,
Front paw, back paw, turn it around!
Scottish Fold, my ears fold down like a cap,
Round owl eyes and I'm ready for a nap.
Bengal, rosettes, got a leopard-print style,
Some of us splash in the water a while.
Abyssinian, look close, I swear,
Tiny little stripes on every hair.
Bombay, mini panther, black to the roots,
Birman, big blue eyes and four white boots.
Pick me up, I'm a Ragdoll, and I just might flop,
That's how I got my name! Flop, flop, flop!
Ears up. Tail high.
Eyes low. Eyes bright.
The judge looks jealous tonight.
He does. Everybody ready? Walk!
Cat walk, walking on my toes, walking in a line,
Back paw lands where the front paw goes, keeping perfect time,
Fluffy, curly, spotty, bald, every breed can shine,
One kind of cat on the cat walk, and the spotlight's mine!
Front paw, back paw, hardly a sound,
Front paw, back paw, turn it around,
Front paw, back paw, hardly a sound,
Front paw, back paw, turn it around!
Excuse me. I have spots too.
Nobody claps for the judge.
Russian Blue, silver coat, eyes of green,
Norwegian Forest Cat, big fluffy queen,
British Shorthair, round as a teddy bear,
Devon Rex, all curly, elf ears in the air,
Munchkin, short legs, but I'm quick on the move,
American Curl, ears curl back with the groove,
Ocicat, spots look wild, but that's just a bluff,
Exotic, Persian face, without all the fluff,
Chartreux from France in a blue-gray coat,
Turkish Van loves to swim, doesn't need a boat!
Left paw! Right paw! Tail up! What tail?
The Manx has no tail! What tail?
Left paw! Right paw! Ears up! What ears?
Oriental Shorthair! What ears?
Left paw! Right paw! Tail up! Pom-pom!
Japanese Bobtail! Pom-pom!
Show cat, farm cat, shelter cat too,
Felis catus, all the same, it's true.
Short hair, long hair, curly or bare,
Every cat's a star, whatever she wears.
Ears up. Tail high.
Eyes low. Eyes bright.
The judge wants a turn tonight.
Not yet. Everybody ready? Walk!
Cat walk, walking on my toes, walking in a line,
Back paw lands where the front paw goes, keeping perfect time,
Fluffy, curly, spotty, bald, every breed can shine,
One kind of cat on the cat walk, and the spotlight's mine!
Fluffy, curly, spotty, bald, every breed can shine,
One kind of cat on the cat walk,
