SONG: Macavity: The Mystery Cat ARTIST: Andrew Lloyd Webber From the musical, CatsCm - Cm/D# - F7 - G7 -Macavity's a mystery cat, he's called the hidden pawCm - Cm/D# - F7 For he's the master criminal who can defy the lawG7 -- Cm - Cm7/A# - F7/A - G#7He's the bafflement of Scotland Yard, the Flying Squad's despairFor when they reach the scene of crime Macavity's not there!Cm - Cm/D# - F7 - D7/F# -Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like MacavityCm - Cm/D# - F7 - D7/F# -He's broken every human law, he breaks the law of gravityCm - Cm/D# - F7 - F#His powers of levitation would make a fakir stareBut when you reach the scene of crime Macavity's not there! You may seek him in the basement, you may look up in the airG7 -But I tell you once and once again Macavity's not there!Cm - Cm/D# - F Macavity's a ginger cat, he's very tall and thinG7 -- Cm - Cm/D# - F - G7You would know him if you saw him for his eyes are sunken inHis brow is deeply lined with thought, his head is highly domed His coat is dusty from neglect, his whiskers are uncombed He sways his head from side to side with movements like a snake And when you think he's half asleep, he's always wide awakeCm - Cm/D# - F7 - D7/F# -Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like MacavityCm - Cm/D# - F7 - D7 -For he's a fiend in feline shape, a monster of depravityCm - Cm/D# - F7 - F#You may meet him in a by-street, you may see him in the squareBut when a crime's discovered then Macavity's not there! He's outwardly respectable, I know he cheats at cards And his footprints are not found in any files of Scotland Yard's And when the larder's looted or the jewel case is rifled Or when the milk is missing or another peke's been stifledCm - Cm7/A# - F7/A - G#7Or the greenhouse glass is broken and the trellis past repairThere's the wonder of the thing Macavity's not there!Cm - Cm/D# - F7 - D7/F# -Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like MacavityCm - Cm/D# - F7 - D7 -There never was a cat of such deceitfulness and suavityCm - Cm/D# - F7 - F#He always has an alibi and one or two to spareWhat ever time the deed took place Macavity wasn't there! And when the Foreign Office find a Treaty's gone astray Or the Admiralty lose some plans or drawings by the way And when the loss has been disclosed, the Secret Service say: "It must have been Macavity!" but he's a mile away!Cm - Cm/A# - F7/A - G#7You'll be sure to find him resting or alicking of his thumbs,or engaged in doing complicated long division sumsCm - Cm/D# - F7 - D7/F# -Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like MacavityCm - Cm/D# - F7 - D7 -There never was a cat of such deceitfulness and suavityCm - Cm/D# - F7 - F#He always has an alibi and one or two to spareWhat ever time the deed took place Macavity wasn't there! And they say that all the cats whose wicked deeds are widely known (I might mention Mungojerrie, Rumpleteazer, Griddlebone)Cm - Cm/A# - F7/A - G#7 Are nothing more than agents for the cat who all the timeG7Just controls the operations: the Napoleon of crime!Cm - Cm/D# - F7 - D7/F# -Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like MacavityCm - Cm/D# - F7 - D7 -For he's a fiend in feline shape, a monster of depravityCm - Cm/D# - F7 - F#You may meet him in a by-street, you may see him in the squareBut when a crime's discovered then Macavity's not there! When a crime's discovered then Macavity's not there!
