Bustopher Jones Lyrics by Brian Blessed, Myra Sands, Susan Jane Tanner, Geraldine Gardner, Original London Cast of Cats

Cats (Original London Cast Recording)

[JENNYANYDOTS]
Bustopher Jones is not skin and bones
[BOMBALURINA]
In fact, he's remarkably fat
[JELLYLORUM]
He doesn't haunt pubs
[JENNYANYDOTS]
He has eight or nine clubs
[JENNYANYDOTS & BOMBALURINA & JELLYLORUM]
For he's the St. James's Street cat!
[JENNYANYDOTS]
He's the cat we all greet as he walks down the street
In his coat of fastidious black
[BOMBALURINA]
No common-place mousers have such well cut trousers
[JELLYLORUM]
Or such an impeccable back
[JENNYANYDOTS]
In the whole of St. James's the smartest of names
Is the name of this Brummell of cats
[JENNYANYDOTS & BOMBALURINA & JELLYLORUM]
And we're all of us proud to be nodded or bowed to
By Bustopher Jones in white spats
[COMPANY]
In the whole of St. James's the smartest of names
Is the name of this Brummell of cats
And we're all of us proud to be nodded or bowed to
By Bustopher Jones in white spats
[BUSTOPHER JONES]
My visits are occasional to The Senior Educational
And it is the against the rules
For any one cat to belong both to that
And The Joint Superior Schools
For a similar reason, when game is in season
I'm found, not at Fox's, but Blimp's;
I am frequently seen at the gay Stage and Screen
Which is famous for winkles and shrimps
In the season of venison I give my ben'son
To the Pothunter's succulent bones;
And just before noon's not a moment too soon
To drop in for a drink at the Drones
When I'm seen in a hurry there's probably curry
At The Siamese or at The Glutton
If I look full of gloom then I've lunched at The Tomb
On cabbage, rice pudding, and mutton
[COMPANY]
In the whole of St. James's the smartest of names
Is the name of this Brummell of cats
And we're all of us proud to be nodded or bowed to
By Bustopher Jones in white
Bustopher Jones in white
Bustopher Jones in white spats
[JENNYANYDOTS]
So much in this way passes Bustopher's day
At one club or another he's found
It can be no surprise that under our eyes
He has grown unmistakably round
He's a twenty-five pounder
[BUSTOPHER JONES]
Or I am a bounder
[JENNYANYDOTS]
And he's putting on weight every day
[BUSTOPHER JONES]
But I'm so well preserved because I've observed
All my life a routine, and I'd say
I am still in my prime, I shall last out my time
[JENNYANYDOTS]
That's the word from the stoutest of cats
[COMPANY]
It must and it shall be spring in Pall Mall
While Bustopher Jones wears white
Bustopher Jones wears white
Bustopher Jones wears white spats
