A man who's not heard of a Jellicle cat?
What's a Jellicle cat?

THE NAMING OF CATS
All: The naming of cats is a difficult matter
It isn't just one of your holiday games
You may think at first I'm as mad as a hatter
When I tell you a cat must have three different names
First of all,there's the name that the family use daily
Such as Peter, Augustus, Alonzo or James
Such as Victor or Jonathan,George or Bill Bailey
All of them are sensible, everyday names
There are fancier names if you think they sound sweeter
Some for the gentlemen,some for the dames
Such as Plato ADMETUS ELECTRA, Demeter
But all of them sensible, everyday names
But I tell you a cat needs a name that's particular
A name that's peculiar and more dignified
Else how can he keep up his tail perpendicular?
Or spread out his whiskers or cherish his pride?
Of names of this kind, I can give you a quorum
Such as Munkustrap, Quaxo or Coricopat
Such ad Bombalurina,or else Jellylorum
Names that never belong to more than one cat
But above and beyond there's still one name left over
And that is the name that you will never guess
The name that no human research can discover
But the cat himself knows and will never confess
When you notice a cat in profound meditation
The reason,I tell you,is always the same
Of the thought, of the thought, of the thought of his name
His ineffable, effable, effanineffable
Deep and inscrutable singular name
Name name name name name name
THE INVITATION TO THE JELLICLE BAII
Mr Mistoffelees; Jellicle cats come out tonight
Jellicle cats come one come all
The Jellicle moon is shining bright
Jellicle come to the Jellicle ball
Jellicle cats come out tonight
Jellicle come to the Jellicle ball
All: Jellicle cats come out tonight
Jellicle cats come one come all
The Jellicle moon is shining bright
Jellicle come to the Jellicle ball
Jellicle cats come out tonight
Jellicle cats come one come all
The Jellicle moon is shining bright
Jellicle come to the Jellicle ball
Munkustrap: Jellicle cats meet once a year
At the Jellicle ball where we all rejoice
And the Jellicle leader will soon appear
And make what is known as the Jellicle choice
When Old Deuteronomy just before dawn
Through a silence you feel you could cut with a knife
Announces the cat who can now be reborn
And come back to disevent Jellicle life
For waiting up there is the heaviside layer
Full of wonders one Jellicle only will see
And Jellicle ask because Jellicle dare
Who will it be?
Who will it be?
THE OLD GIIMBIE CAT
Munkustrap: I have a gumbie cat in mind
her name is Jennyanydots
Her coat is of the tabby kind
With tiger stripes and leopard spots
All day she sits beneath the stair
Or on the steps or on the mat
She sits and sits and sits and sits
And that's what makes a gumbie cat
That's what makes a gumbie cat!
Demeter&Jellylorum&Bombalurina: But...
When the day's hustle and bustle is done
Then the gumbie cat's work is but hardly begun
And when all the family's in bed and asleep
She tucks up her skirts to the basement to creep
She is deeply concerned with the ways of the mice
(Gumbie)Jennyanydots: Their behavior's not good and their manners not nice
Trio: So when she has got them lined up on the matting She teaches them
Gumbie: Music crocheting and tatting
Munkustrap: I have a gumbie cat in mind
Her name is Jennyanydots
The curtain cord she likes to wind
And tie it into sailor knots
She site upon the windowsill
Or anything that's smooth and flat
she sits and sits and sits and sits
And that's what makes a gumbie cat
That's what makes a gumbie cat
Trio: But...
When the day's hustle and bustle is done
Then the gumbie cat's work is but hardly begun
She thinks that the cockroaches
Gumbie: Need employment
Trio: To prevent them from
Gumbie: Idle and wanton destroyment
Trio: So she's formed form that lot of disorderly louts A troop of well disciplined helpful boy scouts
(GumbielJennyanydots: With a purpose in fife and a good deed to do...
Trio: And she's even created a beetles tattoo!
All: For she's a jolly good fellow!
(GumbielJennyanydots: Thank you my dears! The Rum Tum Tugger
All: The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat
Tugger: If you offer me pheasant, I'd rather have grouse
If you put me in a house, I would much prefer a flat
If you put me in a flat, I word rather have a house
If you set me on a mouse, then I only want a rat
If you set me on a rat, then I'd rather chase a mouse
All: The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat
Tugger: And there isn't any need for me to shout it
All: For he will do as he do do
Tugger: And there's nothing doing about it!
Munkustrap&Alonzo&Mistoffeiees: The Rum Tum Tugger is a terrible bore
Tugger: When you let me in, then I want to go out
I' m always on the wrong side of every door
And as soon as I'm at home, then I'd like to get about
I like to lie in the bureau drawer
And I make such a fuss if I can't get out
All: The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat
Tugger: And there isn't any use fou you to doubt it
All: For he will do as he do do
Tugger: And there's no doing anything about it!
Bombalurina: The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious beast
Tugger: My disobliging ways are a matter of habit
If you offer me fish,then I always want a feast
When there isn't any fish,then I won't eat rabbit
If you offer me cream,then I sniff and sneer
For I only like what I find for myself
So you'H catch me in it right up to my ears
If you put it away on the larder shelf
All: The Rum Tum Tugger is artful and knowing
The Rum Tum Tugger
Tugger: Doesn't care for a cuddle
But I'll leap upon your lap in the middle Of your sewing
For there's nothing I enjoy like a horrible muddle!
All: The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat...
The Rum Tum Tugger doesn't care for a cuddle
The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat...
Tugger: And there isn't any need for me to spout it
All;For he will do as he do do
Tugger: And there's no doing anything abou-ou-out it!
GRIZABELLAV THE GLAMOUR CAT
Grizabella: Remark the cat
Who hesitates toward you
In the light of the door
Which opens on her like a grin
You see the border of her coat
Is torn and stained with sand
And you see the corner of her eye
Twist like a crooked pin
Demeter: She haunted many a low resort Near the grimy road of Tottenham court
She flitted about the no man's land
From "The rising sun" to "The friend at hand"
And the postman sighed as he scratched his head
"You'd really had thought she ought to be dead"
And who would ever suppose that that
Was Grizabella the Glamour cat
Bombalurina: Grizabella, the Glamour Cat
Bombalurina&Demeter: Grizabella the Glamour cat
All: Who'd have ever supposed that that
Was Grizabella, the Glamour Cat

貓的命名
全體:為貓取名是一件難事
這可不是一場(chǎng)假日游戲
當(dāng)我告訴你一只貓必須有三個(gè)名字
你可能認(rèn)為我精神有病
第一是日常居家的名字
比如:彼得/奧古斯塔斯/阿隆佐/詹姆斯
比如:維克多/喬納坦/喬治l比爾·貝利
這都是日常合理的名字
還有花哨些的名字或許你覺得更好聽
有些屬于紳士有些屬于淑女
比如:柏拉圖/艾德米塔斯/伊列克特拉/迪米特
但都只是日常合理的名字
而我要告訴你貓還需要一個(gè)特別的名字
一個(gè)奇特而且更加尊貴的名字
不然它怎能翹著高高的尾巴
展開長長的胡須而且傲氣十足呢?
像這樣的名字我能給你一大串
像蒙克斯崔普奎佐或克里克帕特
還有邦巴露娜或是詹麗若姆
一個(gè)名字只對(duì)應(yīng)一只貓
但除此之外還有一個(gè)名字
那是你永遠(yuǎn)猜不到的名字
那是人類無法發(fā)現(xiàn)的名字
那是貓自己知道卻永不會(huì)說的名字
當(dāng)你看到貓陷入沉思
我告訴你原因只有一個(gè)
他正投入地思索著、思索著、思索著他的名字
他那難以言說,有時(shí)說得出,有是又說不出的
高深莫測(cè),非同一般的名字
名字、名字、名字、名……

格里澤貝拉:注意這只貓
她向著你躊躇不前
門微笑般向她開啟

看她外套邊角
被撕破并沽滿了沙
你看她眼角
歪曲得就像回形針
迪米特:她出沒在托敦漢短巷周圍的許多骯臟地段
她流浪在無人地區(qū)
從“如日中天”淪落到“四處乞討’‘
