I'm upset now; let me tell you why, Our old tom cat has been and done a guy (run away) My old gal declares that it's a sign Somebody's number's up and two to one it's mine I've been wondering why I am to blame For sneaking the bacon and the brawn And the young man lodger's two-eyed steaks (bloater) When they're missing on a Sunday morn. Chorus: Has anybody seen our cat? Has anybody seen our cat? He's got a bit of black on the end of his tail And the skin's all off where he's been fighting Last Sunday morning we missed him from the mat Puss! Puss! Puss! Meat! Meat! Meat! Has anybody seen our cat? How we loved that cat nobody knows Put butter on his feet and pepper on his nose When he caught cold gave myself a job When the toothache troubled him so bad And I found little Tommy couldn't eat I tied up his face, put baccy in his ear And got another cat to chew his meat. Chorus: I never thought he'd leave his happy home Though after the gals he often used to roam I've sent tripe hounds out upon his track I'm doing everything to try and get him back Got two cods heads stuck up on a pole And nailed up a kipper on the door And written underneath it ‘Welcome home' And a promise not to kick him any more. Chorus: |
