Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer Had an unusual gift of the gab. They were highly efficient cat burglars as well, And remarkably smart at a smash and grab. They made their home in Victoria Grove; They had no regular occupation. They were plausible fellows who liked to engage A friendly policeman in conversation...
Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer Had a wonderful way of working together. And some of the time you would say it was luck, And some of the time you would say it was weather! They'd go through the house like a hurricane, And no sober person could take his oath: Was it Mungojerrie or Rumpleteazer? Or could you have sworn that it mightn't be both? And when you heard a dining-room smash Or up from the pantry there came a loud crash, Or down from the library came a loud "ping!" From a vase that was commonly said to be Ming-- Then the family would say, "Now which was which cat? It was Mungojerrie AND Rumpleteazer, And there's nothing at all to be done about that!"

I like Valeria's whiskers in the Pillow Of Royalty shot.

Music: CATS
You know, it's been a long time since I listened to that whole soundtrack...

Macavity's a mystery cat
He's called the Hidden Paw
For he's a master criminal
Who can defy the law
He's the bafflement of Scotland Yard
The Flying Squad's despair
For when they reach the scene of the crime
Macavity's not there!
