The Aristocats JDD Version

Everybody wants to be a cat

It was late at night in the city of Paris, when the cats and fox continued their journey, and they were getting tired. Duchess: "But Thomas, Madame will be so worried, are you sure that we can't get home by tonight?" Marie: "Momma... I'm tired." Berlioz: "Me too, and my feet hurt." O'Malley: "Look baby, it's late, and the kids are bushed." Toulouse: "I'll bet we'd walked over a hundred miles..." Berlioz: "I'll bet it's more of a thousand..." Gidget: "I don't know about that... but we did walked pretty much all day..." Tommy: "No kidding... and I'm really hungry..." Duchess: "Now children, cheer up, Mr O'Malley knows a place where we can stay tonight." Toulouse: "Really?, how much further is it?" O'Malley: "Don't worry, it's just around the next chimney." said the alley cat, before sees there was some lights and music being played inside the old building. Tommy: "Were you expecting company?" O'Malley: "Oh!, sounds like Scat Cat and his gang have dropped by." Duchess: "Oh, friends of yours?" O'Malley: "Yeah, they're old buddies of mine, you wouldn't mind meeting them, do you?" Duchess: "Of course not, I would love to meet your friends." O'Malley: "Well, okay." a moment later, they went to the skylight of the building, and see some alley cats playing some instruments. The leader of the alley cats was Scat Cat (voiced by Scatman Crothers), and he was the same color as Berlioz, and was playing the trumpet. Scat Cat: "Well looky here!, big cat O'Malley is back in his alley, turn on down here daddy!" said Scat Cat, as he and O'Malley made a high five, or a high four in their case. That was when Duchess came over to them. O'Malley: "Duchess, this here Scat Cat himself." Duchess: "Well I'm delighted to meet you, Monsieur Scat Cat." said Duchess, as Scat Cat kisses her paw. Scat Cat: "Likewise Duchess, you're too much." Duchess: "My, you are charming, and your music is so... so different, but very exciting." Berlioz: "It isn't Beethoven, momma, but it sure bounces." Scat Cat: "Say, this kitten knows where it's at." Marie: "Knows where what's at?" Scat Cat: "Well little lady, let me put it in a way with a song here." said Scat Cat, before he begins to sing. Scat Cat: "Everybody wants to be a cat, Because a cat's the only cat, Who knows where it's at♫." O'Malley: "Tell me, everybody's picking up on that feline beat, cause everything else is obsolete♫." Scat Cat: "♪A square with a horn makes you wish you weren't born, every time he plays♫." O'Malley: "♪But with a square in the act, you can set music back♫." Scat Cat: "♪To the cave man days, cha-cha-ba-dum-bo-day♫." O'Malley: "♪I've heard some corny birds who who tried to sing♫." Scat Cat: "♪Still a cat's the only cat who knows how to swing, who wants to dig a long-haired gig or stuff like that?♫" O'Malley & Scat Cat: "♪When everybody wants to be a cat, a square with a horn makes you wish you weren't born, every time he plays♫." Tommy & Gidget: "♪Oh, a rinky-tinky-tinky♫." O'Malley & Scat Cat: "♪With a square in the act you can set music back, to the cave man days♫." Marie: "♪Oh, a rinky-tinky-tinky, yes, everybody wants to be a cat, because a cat's the only cat who knows where it's at, when playing jazz you always has a welcome mat♫." O'Malley & Scat Cat: "♪'Cause everybody digs a swinging cat♫."that was when Tommy turns on a lamp, hanging from the ceiling, bringing some colorful lights in the room, motivating the other cats to play some more upbeat jazz music. It wasn't long before started to dance, like Duchess and O'Malley dancing together for example, or Tommy dancing with Gidget for another. That was when Scat Cat and his gang started to dance on top of a piano while playing music. All: "♪Everybody, everybody, everybody wants to be a cat, Hallelujah!, everybody, everybody, everybody wants to be a cat, I'm telling you, everybody, everybody, everybody wants to be a cat, yeah!, everybody, everybody, everybody wants to be... a... cat!~~~♫" once the song ended, Scat Cat and his gang decided it was time for them to go, but promising Duchess and the others that they'll see them again.
