Cats Soundtrack The Invitation To The Jellicle Ball Lyrics

The Invitation To The Jellicle Ball Lyrics

(SOLO DANCE -- VICTORIA) 

 

 MISTOFFELEES:

 Jellicle cats come out tonight

 Jellicle cats come one, come all

 The Jellicle moon is shining bright

 Jellicles come to the Jellicle ball

 

 Jellicle cats come out tonight

 Jellicles come to the Jellicle ball

 

 CHORUS:

 Jellicle cats are white and black

 Jellicle cats are of moderate size

 Jellicles jump like a jumping jack

 Jellicle cats have moonlit eyes

 

 We're quiet enough in the morning hours

 We're quiet enough in the afternoon

 Reserving our terpsichorean powers

 To dance by the light of the Jellicle moon

 

 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 different Jellicle life

 Because waiting up there is the heaviside layer

 With wonders one Jellicle only will see

 Jellicles ask because Jellicles dare

 Who will it be? Who will it be?
