[00:04.40]	You've heard of several kinds of cat
[00:09.80]	And my opinion now is that
[00:14.57]	You should need no interpreter
[00:19.61]	To understand our character
[00:24.43]	You've learned enough to take the view
[00:29.32]	That cats are very much like you
[00:34.06]	You've seen us both at work and games
[00:39.15]	And learnt about our proper names
[00:44.10]	Our habits and our habitat
[00:48.44]	But how would you address a cat?
[00:58.22]	So first, you’ll memory I'll jog
[01:04.98]	And say: A cat is not a dog
[01:19.86]	Now dogs pretend they like to fight
[01:24.71]	They often bark, more seldom bite
[01:29.47]	But yet a dog is, on the whole
[01:34.19]	What you would call a simple soul
[01:38.95]	The usual dog about the town
[01:43.79]	Is much inclined to play the clown
[01:48.52]	And far from showing too much pride
[01:53.70]	Is frequently undignified
[01:58.61]	He's such an easy-going lout
[02:03.28]	He'll answer any hail or shout
[02:12.84]	The usual dog about the town
[02:18.16]	Is much inclined to play the clown
[02:22.57]	Again I must remind you that
[02:29.18]	A dog's a dog, a cat's a cat
[02:39.96]	With cats, some say one rule is true
[02:46.93]	Don't speak 'til you are spoken to
[02:55.21]	Myself I do not hold with that
[03:00.04]	I say you should address a cat
[03:04.72]	But always bear in mind that he
[03:09.23]	Resents familiarity
[03:16.30]	You bow, and taking off your hat
[03:23.49]	Address him in this form: "O' cat!"
[03:34.51]	Before a cat will condescend
[03:38.85]	To treat you as a trusted friend
[03:43.72]	Some little token of esteem
[03:48.15]	Is needed, like a dish of cream
[03:52.85]	And you might now and then supply
[03:57.36]	Some caviar, or Strasburg pie
[04:01.57]	Some potted grouse or salmon paste
[04:06.53]	He's sure to have his personal taste
[04:11.65]	And so in time you reach your aim
[04:16.34]	And call him by his name
[04:26.32]	So this is this, and that is that
[04:33.78]	And there's how you address a cat
[04:41.52]	A cat's entitled to expect
[04:46.98]	These evidences of respect
[04:51.18]	So this is this, and that is that
[04:58.68]	And there's how you address a cat
