1
Macavity's a mystery cat
2
He's called the Hidden Paw
3
For he's a master criminal
4
Who can defy the law
5
He's the bafflement of Scotland Yard
6
The Flying Squad's despair
7
For when they reach the scene of crime
8
Macavity's not there
9
Macavity, Macavity
10
There's no one like Macavity
11
He's broken every human law
12
He breaks the law of gravity
13
His powers of levitation
14
Would make a fakir stare
15
And when you reach the scene of crime
16
Macavity's not there
17
You may seek him in the basement
18
You may look up in the air
19
But I tell you once and once again
20
Macavity's not there
21
Macavity's a ginger cat
22
He's very tall and thin
23
You would know him if you saw him
24
For his eyes are sunken in
25
His brow is deeply lined in thought
26
His head is highly domed
27
His coat is dusty from neglect
28
His whiskers are uncombed
29
He sways his head from side to side
30
With movements like a snake
31
And when you think he's half asleep
32
He's always wide awake
33
Macavity, Macvity
34
There's no one like Macavity
35
He's a fiend in feline shape
36
A monster of depravity
37
You may meet him in a by-street
38
You may see him in the square
39
But when a crime's discovered
40
Then Macavity's not there
41
He's outwardly respectable
42
I know he cheats at cards
43
And his footprints are not found
44
In any files of Scotland Yard's
45
And when the larder's looted
46
Or he jewel cases rifled
47
Or when the milk is missing
48
Or another Peke's been stifled
49
Or the greenhouse is broken
50
And the trellis past repair
51
There's the wonder of the thing
52
Macavity's not there
53
Macavity, Macavity
54
There's no one like Macavity
55
There never was a cat
56
Of such deceitfulness and suavity
57
He always has a alibi
58
And one or two to spare
59
Whatever time the deed took place
60
Macavity wasn't there
61
And they say that all the cats
62
Whose wicked deeds are widely known
63
(I might mention Mungojerrie)
64
(I might mention Griddlebone)
65
Are nothing more than agents
66
For the cat who all the time
67
Just controls the operations
68
The Napoleon of crime
69
Macavity, Macavity
70
There's no one like Macavity
71
He's a fiend in feline shape
72
A monster of depravity
73
You may meet him in a by-street
74
You may see him in the square
75
But when a crime's discovered
76
Then Macavity, Macavity, Macavity
77
When a crime's discovered
78
Then Macavity's not there
79
Macavity's not there
80
We have to find old Deuteronomy
