The Rum Tum Tugger
is a Curious Cat
If you offer him pheasant
he would rather have grouse.
If you put him in a house
he would much prefer a flat,
If you put him in a flat
then he'd rather have a house.
If you set him on a mouse
then he only wants a rat,
If you set him on a rat
then he'd rather chase a mouse.
Yes the Rum Tum Tugger
is a Curious Cat -
And there isn't any call
for me to shout it:
For he will do
As he do do
And there's no doing anything
about it!
T.S. Eliot
