[00:09.700]	Bustopher Jones is not skin and bones
[00:13.900]	In fact, he's remarkably fat
[00:18.200]	He doesn't haunt pubs
[00:20.300]	he has eight or nine clubs
[00:23.050]	For he's the St. James Street cat
[00:26.950]	He's the cat we all greet
[00:29.300]	As he walk down the street
[00:31.680]	In his coat of fastidious black
[00:36.150]	No common-place mousers have such well cut trousers
[00:40.700]	Or such an impeccable back
[00:45.070]	In the whole of St. James's the smartest of names is
[00:50.000]	The name of this Brummell of cats
[00:54.250]	And we're all of us proud to be nodded or bowed to
[00:58.900]	By Bustopher Jones in white spats
[01:03.250]	In the whole of St. James's the smartest of names is
[01:07.600]	The name of this Brummell of cats
[01:12.300]	And we're all of us proud to be nodded or bowed to
[01:16.600]	By Bustopher Jones in white spats
[01:27.250]	My visits are occasional to the senior educational
[01:33.500]	And it is against the rules
[01:38.600]	For any one cat to belong both to that
[01:44.450]	And the Joint Superior Schools
[01:50.300]	For a similar reason, when game is in season
[01:55.800]	I'm found, not at Fox's, but Blimp’s
[02:00.900]	I am frequently seen at the gay Stage and Screen
[02:06.700]	Which is famous for winkles and shrimps
[02:12.200]	In the season of venison I give my Benison
[02:17.800]	To the Pothunter's succulent bones
[02:23.200]	And just before noon's not a moment too soon
[02:28.500]	To drop in for a drink at the Drones
[02:36.500]	When I'm seen in a hurry there's probably curry
[02:41.800]	At the Siamese or at the Glutton
[02:47.100]	If I look full of gloom then I've lunched at the Tomb
[02:53.300]	On cabbage, rice pudding and mutton
[02:57.900]	In the whole of St. James's the smartest of names is
[03:02.550]	The name of this Brummell of cats
[03:07.000]	And we're all of us proud to be nodded or bowed to
[03:11.300]	By Bustopher Jones in white spats
[03:25.100]	So much in this way passes Bustopher's day
[03:29.500]	At one club or another he's found
[03:33.700]	It can be no surprise that under our eyes
[03:38.000]	He has grown unmistakably round
[03:42.200]	He's a twenty-five pounder
[03:44.800]	Or I am a bounder
[03:46.500]	And he's putting on weight every day
[03:50.900]	But I'm so well preserved because I've observed
[03:55.000]	All my life a routine and I'd say
[03:58.900]	I am still in my prime, I shall last out my time
[04:03.650]	That's the word from this stoutest of cats
[04:07.500]	It must and it shall be spring in Pall Mall
[04:12.550]	While Bustopher Jones wears white
[04:15.150]	Bustopher Jones wears white
[04:17.400]	Bustopher Jones wears white spats
