Then if someone will give him
a toothful of gin He will tell how he once
played a part in East Lynne In a Shakespeare performance
he once came on pat When some actor
suggested the need for a cat And he says, now these kittens,
they do not get trained As we did in the days
when Victoria reigned They do not get drilled
in a regular troupe And they think it is smart
just to jump through a hoop And he says,
as he scratches himself with his claws Well, the theatre
is certainly not what it was
a toothful of gin He will tell how he once
played a part in East Lynne In a Shakespeare performance

suggested the need for a cat And he says, now these kittens,
they do not get trained As we did in the days
when Victoria reigned They do not get drilled
in a regular troupe And they think it is smart
just to jump through a hoop And he says,
