Old Deuteronomy

TANTOMILE:
I believe it is Old Deuteronomy...

CHORUS:
Well, of all things can it be really
Yes! No! Ho! Hi! Oh, my eye!
My Mind may be wandering, but 
I confess I believe it is Old Deuteronomy!

MUNKUSTRAP:
Old Deuteronomy’s lived a long time,
he’s a cat who has lived many lives in succession.
He has famous in proverb and famous in rhyme,
a long while before Queen Victoria’s accession.

RUM TUM TUGGER:
Old Deuteronomy’s buried nine wives
and more I am tempted to say ninety nine,
and his numerous  progeny prosper and thrives
and the village is proud of him in his decline.

MUNKUSTRAP:
At the sight of that placid and bland physiognomy,
when he sits in the sun on the vicarage wall, 
the Oldest inhabitant croaks

MUNKUSTRAP, RUM TUM TUGGER:
"Well of all things can it be really... 
Yes! No! Ho! Hi! Oh, my eye!
My mind may be wandering, but I confess
I believe it is Old Deuteronomy!"

CHORUS:
Well of all things can it be really
Yes! No! Ho! Hi! Oh, my eye! 
My mind may be wandering but I confess
I believe it is Old Deuteronomy! 

Well of all things can it be really
Yes! No! Ho! Hi! Oh, my eye! 
My mind may be wandering but I confess
I believe it is Old Deuteronomy! 

Well of all things can it be really
Yes! No! Ho! Hi! Oh, my eye! 

OLD DEUTERONOMY:
My legs may be tottery I must go slow
And be careful of Old Deuteronomy.
