嗜血猎人

非常喜欢这部音乐剧~~找了些有关《猫》的东西拿来给大家分享~~希望大家喜欢 简介：音乐剧:猫 有史以来最著名的,演出时间最长的音乐剧,从1981年开始风靡世界21年,共以 10几种语言在20几个国家出演无数次.仅仅在伦敦的演出场次就达9000多次!

《猫》（Cats） 类型 :音乐剧 编剧 :Andrew Lloyd Webber 原著 :T.S.艾略特的<<擅长装扮的老猫经>>/Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats 音乐 :Andrew Lloyd Webber 舞台设计:John Napier 灯光设计:David Hersey 声乐设计:Martin Levan 舞蹈设计:Gillian Lynne 特点 :音乐、T.S.艾略特的诗、特殊的视觉效果等等。该剧是真正适合各种 文化背景的大众的戏剧。 《猫》，是英国作曲家安德鲁.洛伊德.韦伯（Andrew Lloyd Webber）根据 Ｔ.Ｓ.艾略特（T. S. Eliot）的诗集谱曲的音乐歌舞剧。自从在1981年伦敦首场演出之后，已经成为讫今以来最著名的歌舞剧。其中的名曲“记忆”，在全世界广为流传。目前，《猫》是世界上票房最高的舞台剧，也是在美国纽约百老汇和英国伦敦西头连续公演最长的舞台剧。 虽然《猫》的世界旅行从欧洲、美洲、澳洲甚至日本，可惜的是它一直没有机会登上中国的舞台。幸好的是在1997年末，韦伯集齐了全世界最精华的演员和剧组人员，制作了《猫》的录像带。从此五彩花猫们再不受舞台的限制，即时是离百老汇冬日花园剧场远隔千里万里，你也一样可以看到席卷世界的，“现在及永远”的,《猫》的风采。 《猫》是世界历史上最成功的音乐剧。其剧作者安德鲁-洛伊德-韦伯是世界音乐剧史上一个极其罕见的天才，他那闪耀着天才光芒的创造才使20世纪下半叶的音乐剧舞台因为《约瑟夫与神奇五彩衣》等一系列美妙无比的音乐剧歌曲……

《猫》曾获得七项托尼奖，包括最佳歌剧。而《记忆》一曲则成为现代音乐中的经典，它的演唱者包括世界闻名的歌手芭芭拉-史翠珊(Barbara Streisand)、拜瑞-曼塔洛(Barry mantilow)和茱迪-柯林丝(Judy collins)。

《猫》曾在阿根廷、澳大利亚、奥地利、加拿大、德国、英国、芬兰、法国、荷兰、香港、匈牙利、冰岛、爱尔兰、日本、朝鲜、墨西哥、新西兰、挪威、俄罗斯、瑞典、瑞士、美国和新加坡等地的250余个剧场演出过。 《猫》剧情简介

第一幕 子夜的舞会使猫疯狂 夜晚，废物堆积场里一片安静，但当第一只杰里可猫出现后，这里立刻活跃起来——夜晚是猫儿的世界，猫儿是夜晚的女王！杰里可猫一只接一只出现，告诉观众猫儿的神秘特性，用歌声歌颂杰里可猫族的永恒！（歌曲：《Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats 杰里可歌颂杰里可猫》） 杰里可猫们告诉观众，给猫命名是件难事，因为猫需要三个不同的名字：一个是平常的居家名字，一个是比较高贵文雅的名字，而且绝对不会和别的猫重复；但还有一个名字是秘密的名字；当猫在沉思时，他就是在思索自己的第三个名字。（歌曲：《The Naming of Cats 猫的命名》） 月光下，纯白的小猫维多利亚Victoria跳起了独舞；很快小黑猫密斯达弗利斯先生Mr.Mistoffelees也出现了，用歌声向所有的猫儿发出杰里可舞会的邀请。猫族的保护者，强健的灰猫蒙可斯屈普Munkustrap告诉小猫们，今夜是一年一度的杰里可舞会，猫族的领袖老狄尤特洛诺米Old Deuteronomy将选出一只猫登上猫族的天堂——九重天，并且获得重生！（歌曲：《The Invitation of the Jellicle Ball 杰里可舞会的邀请》） 蒙可斯屈普向大家介绍一只老甘比猫——珍妮安点点Jennyanydots；杰莉罗伦Jellylorum、波芭露丽娜Bombalurina和迪米特Demeter告诉大家：虽然珍妮安点点白天总是坐着睡觉，但到了晚上她就开始了忙碌——她教老鼠缝纫和礼仪，还给蟑螂组织了一支童子军！（歌曲：《The Old Gumbie Cat 老甘比猫》） 杰里可猫族中的摇滚明星和花花公子般的兰·堂·塔格Rum Tum Tugger突然来了，年轻的母猫和小猫们都疯狂的追随他舞蹈，而成年公猫和老猫们则都不以为然，但是，没有什么能够改变塔格！（歌曲：《The Rum Tum Tugger 兰·堂·塔格》） 一只丑陋的老母猫突然出现在废物堆积场，小猫们好奇的接近她，却被年长的猫拉开了；年轻的母猫迪米特和波芭露丽娜告诉小猫：她曾经是杰里可猫族中最美丽的母猫，格瑞泽贝拉Grizabella，被称为魅力猫。但因为她早年的离去，猫族不愿原谅她。（歌曲：《Grizabella: The Glamour Cat 格瑞泽贝拉：魅力猫》） 肥胖的猫中贵族巴斯特弗·琼斯Bustopher Jones也来了，所有的猫儿都以向他问好为荣；他整天就是吃，但仍认为自己保养的很好，尚处于全盛时期。（歌曲：《Bustopher Jones 巴斯特弗·琼斯》） 忽然之间，雷声大作，吓坏了的迪米特叫出了邪恶的猫马卡维提Macavity的名字，惊慌的猫群四散奔逃，负责保护猫族的2只年轻公猫蒙可斯屈普和阿隆佐Alonzo在巡逻一返后也下场了；这时，2只淘气的小偷猫——蒙哥杰瑞Mungojerre和兰普蒂瑟Rumpleteaser出现了，他们得意扬扬的向观众介绍自己：他们是一对恶名昭著的捣蛋鬼，专门给他们的主人添麻烦，但却从来没被惩罚过。（歌曲：《Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer 蒙哥杰瑞和兰普蒂瑟》） 有着神秘魔力的密斯达弗利斯以及孪生猫考瑞考帕特Coriocopat与坦托米尔Tantomile感觉到了老狄尤特洛诺米即将到来，蒙可斯屈普和兰·堂·塔格告诉小猫们，老狄尤特洛诺米是一只德高望重的老猫；杰里可猫族的领袖终于来了，猫儿们一片欢腾！（歌曲：《Old Deuteronomy 老狄尤特洛诺米》） 杰里可猫们为他们的领袖准备了一出名为“狗咬狗的恐怖事件”的喜剧，母猫们扮演北京狗、公猫们扮演波里可狗，还有一只小猫扮演猫族的超人：“伟大的兰帕斯猫The Great Rumpus Cat”；但是在表演的时候，除了认真的蒙可斯屈普，其他的猫不是唱错了时间就是站错了位置，结果成了一出滑稽的闹剧，让蒙可斯屈普头疼不已。（歌曲：《The Pekes and the Pollicles 狗咬狗的恐怖事件》） 电闪雷鸣，邪恶的猫马卡维提在废物场边一闪而过，除了蒙可斯屈普和老狄尤特洛诺米，所有的猫儿都恐惧的躲藏起来；老狄尤特洛诺米用歌声安慰受惊的小猫们，猫儿们重新回到场上，快乐的杰里可舞会开始了！在这个部分中，有一段双人舞，象征了小母猫维多利亚的破贞仪式。在此之后，除了老狄尤特洛诺米和蒙可斯屈普，猫儿们都少事休息，小睡片刻……考瑞考帕特和坦托米尔突然醒来，密斯达弗利斯发现原来是格瑞泽贝拉在场边偷看，阿隆佐赶走了她，猫儿们又继续欢乐的舞会。（歌曲：《The Jellicle Ball 杰里可舞会》） 格瑞泽贝拉又来到场上，猫儿们都避开她；月光下，孤独的格瑞泽贝拉回忆着自己年轻美丽时幸福的时光，老狄尤特洛诺米同情的向她伸出手（爪子？），但她没有看见，黯然离开了。（歌曲：《Memory 回忆》）

第一幕终

第二幕 “夏天为何迟到，时光怎样流逝”

老狄尤特洛诺米告诉猫儿们，幸福的含义不仅仅是现在，也包括过去那些不能遗忘的事情；月光下，杰里可猫族中最年幼的小猫杰米玛Jemima唱起了格瑞泽贝拉的歌，猫儿们都流露出感动的表情。（歌曲：《The Moments of Happiness 幸福时刻》《Memory 回忆》） 杰莉罗伦带来了剧院的老猫格斯Gus，格斯现在虽然年老体弱、疾病缠身，但当他年轻的时候，他可是剧院里一颗闪耀的明星！（歌曲：《Gus the Theatre Cat 剧院猫格斯》） 格斯的回忆起他最得意的作品——《格罗泰格的最后一战》：大海盗格罗泰格Growltiger在海上危害四方，一天他见到美丽的母猫格琳德波尔Griddlebone，受其迷惑，终于在敌人的追杀下落水而亡。这一段中，格斯扮演格罗泰格，杰莉罗伦扮演格琳德波尔，年轻的公猫们扮演格罗泰格率领的海盗团和追杀他的暹罗猫。（歌曲：《Growltiger's Last Stand 格罗泰格的最后一战》《The Ballad of Billy M'Caw 比利·麦考尔的叙事诗》《In Quella Tepida Notte》） 老狄尤特洛诺米和杰米玛向大家介绍铁路猫斯金伯山克斯Skimbleshanks，他是一只在火车上工作的猫；斯金伯山克斯告诉小猫们关于卧铺车厢的一切，只要有他在，火车的运行就一切正常，因为负责的斯金伯不允许出任何乱子。猫儿们甚至用废物场的杂物搭出了一列火车！（歌曲：《Skimbleshanks 斯金伯山克斯》） 邪恶的马卡维提终于闯进舞会，劫走了老狄尤特洛诺米，蒙可斯屈普和公猫们追踪而去；母猫迪米特和波芭露丽娜告诉小猫：马卡维提是犯罪大师，但却从未被捕获，因为每当罪行被发现时，他早已不在现场；公猫们回到废物场，但没有找到马卡维提的踪迹；马卡维提扮成老狄尤特洛诺米的样子来到场上，被迪米特识破，他又试图绑架迪米特，但蒙可斯屈普和阿隆佐与他展开搏斗，阻止了他的恶行；最后马卡维提在猫群的围攻下逃离，同时拉断了电线，导致全场黑暗。（歌曲：《Macavity 马卡维提》） 马卡维提逃走了，杰里可猫必须要去寻找老狄尤特洛诺米，这时兰·堂·塔格从藏身之处出来，告诉大家神奇的密斯达弗利斯先生能帮忙，他是一只会魔法的猫；密斯达弗利斯先生从天而降，用魔力使场上的电灯重新点亮，然后让卡桑德拉协助他变回了老狄尤特洛诺米，猫儿们高兴的一起称赞他是最聪明的猫，而密斯达弗利斯先生最后神奇的在大家面前突然消失在空气中！（歌曲：《The Magical Mr. Mistoffelees 神奇的密斯达弗利斯先生》） 老狄尤特洛诺米将做杰里可抉择，这时小猫杰米玛突然唱起格瑞泽贝拉的歌；格瑞泽贝拉又出现了，她悲哀的回忆着过去，同时盼望能够获得新的生活；纯洁的白猫维多利亚首先对她表示同情，杰里可猫们终于原谅了她，接纳她回到族中。（歌曲：《Memory 回忆》） 老狄尤特洛诺米选择格瑞泽贝拉是今年获得重生的猫，猫儿们欢送她登上了通往九重天之路！（歌曲：《The Journey to the Heaviside Layer 通往九重天之路》） 老狄尤特洛诺米告诉观众，猫儿需要得到人类的尊重，你必须平等的对待猫，才能和猫成为真正的朋友，猫和人类没什么不同。（歌曲：《The Ad-dressing of Cats 对待猫的态度》）

全剧终

从诗歌到音乐剧——《猫》的演变 安德鲁·劳伊德·韦伯（Andrew Lloyd Webber）1977年开始着手将艾略特的诗集《擅长装扮的老猫经》（Old Possum’s Bood of Practical）改为音乐，部分是因为他对小时候读过的这本书有深刻印象，部分是因为他想根据现有的诗篇来创作音乐。 　　《擅长装扮的老猫经》中的诗句特别有音乐性， 具有属于自身的节奏感，比如“若腾塔格”或“老杜特洛内米”，尽管有些词句非常适合用音乐来编配，但仍有相当多不规则和激动人心的词句对作曲家构成了挑战。

　　安德鲁·劳伊德·韦伯第一次先用钢琴为朋友演奏了早期的片段，后来才在辛德蒙顿节日上演出。T.S.艾略特的遗孀瓦莱里·艾略特也参加了音乐会并带来了他丈夫生前尚未出版的作品，其中就有《魅力猫-格里泽贝拉Grizabella》，这正是剧中演唱歌曲《回忆》的角色。

　　第一次的制作演出导演是特雷沃尔·努恩（Trevor Nunn），剧中他解决了许多人们认为无法结局的戏剧问题，后来他与安德鲁·劳伊德·韦伯合作执导《猫》，使其成为经久不衰的经典剧目。

　　舞蹈的原创者是吉莉安·林妮（Gillian Lynne），她不想运用已有的舞蹈风格，而是代之以新概念和充满能量的独创风格。这种充满力量的不寻常练习使得演员获得了最自由的表现力。林妮在观察了《猫》之后，发现猫具有孤癖，冷淡，多情，充满柔韧性与神秘感等特征，于是他以这些特征创作出了《猫》的舞蹈。

　　就在商讨《猫》登台演出事宜时，制作班子觉得演出的先决条件是先要有一个可以控制演出气氛的环境，这种气氛这应该在演出开始之前便形成。

　　服装设计师约翰·纳皮尔（John Napier）于1980年11月开始了他的设计工作，并设法创作一个猫儿们聚集一堂的场景。他根据T.S.艾略特的诗集，结合了猫和人类的因素，为每一只猫设计了服装。绝大多数的服装都很柔韧而易于移动，而且带有强烈的舞蹈特质。每一个猫必须有独特的化妆，以此来凸现他们的个性。

　　《猫》在1981年5月11日首演于新伦敦剧院。如同其他著名剧目一样，《猫》的诞生并不轻松。人们认为上演一部取材于儿童诗作的音乐剧只会带来灾难性的后果。

　　事实上，直到演出的当天晚上才筹集到制作产品的投资，剧院的老板已经丧失信心，还想要违约退出。格里泽贝拉猫（Grizabella）的最初扮演者是著名英国女演员朱迪·登切（Judi Dench），后来在排练期间她患上了严重的跟腱炎，所以才不得不在首演前五天替换著名的伊莲·佩吉（Elaine Page）来担任这个角色。 《猫》在全世界的演出历程 ●1981年5月11日首演于伦敦西区的新伦敦剧院 　　●1982年在纽约百老汇大街公演。

《猫》剧本歌词 Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats 杰里可歌颂杰里可猫 Are you blind when you're born? Can you see in the dark? Dare you look at a king? Would you sit on his throne? Can you say of your bite that it's worse than your bark? Are you cock of the walk when you're walking alone? Because Jellicles are and Jellicles do Jellicles do and Jellicles would Jellicles would and Jellicles can Jellicles can and Jellicles do

When you fall on your head, Do you land on your feet? Are you tense when you sense There's a storm in the air? Can you find your way blind When you're lost in the street? Do you know how to go to the Heaviside Layer?

Because Jellicles can and Jellicles do Jellicles do and Jellicles can Jellicles can and Jellicles do Jellicles do and Jellicles can Jellicles can and Jellicles do

Can you ride on a broomstick to places far distant? Familiar with candle, with book, and with bell? Were you Whittington's friend? The Pied Piper's assistant? Have you been an alumnus of heaven and hell?

Are you mean like a minx? Are you lean like a lynx? Are you keen to be seen when you're smelling a rat? Were you there when the pharaohs commissioned the Sphinx? If you were and you are, you're a Jellicle Cat!

Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats

We can dive through the air like a flying trapeze We can turn double somersaults, bounce on a tire We can run up a wall, we can swing through the trees We can balance on bars, we can walk on a wire

Jellicles can and Jellicles do Jellicles can and Jellicles do Jellicles can and Jellicles do Jellicles can and Jellicles do Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats

Can you sing at the same time in more than one key? Duets by Rossini and waltzes by Strauss? And can you (as cats do) begin with a 'C'? That always triumphantly brings down the house?

Jellicle Cats are queen of the nights Singing at astronomical heights Handling pieces from 'The Messiah' Hallelujah, angelical choir

The mystical divinity of unashamed felinity 'Round the cathedral rang 'Vivat' Life to the everlasting cat! Feline, fearless, faithful and true To others who do what

Jellicles do and Jellicles can Jellicles can and Jellicles do Jellicle Cats sing Jellicle Chants Jellicles old and Jellicles new Jellicle song and Jellicle dance Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats

Practical cats, dramatical cats, pragmatical cats, fanatical cats Oratorical cats, delphicoracle cats, skeptical cats, dispeptical cats Romantical cats, pedantical cats, critical parasitical cats, allegorical cats Metaphorical cats, statistical cats, and mystical cats Political cats, hypocritical cats, clerical cats, hysterical cats Cynical cats, rabbinical cats

Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats

There's a man over there with a look of surprise As much as to say as to say now, well how about that? Do I actually see with my own very eyes A man who's not heard of a Jellicle Cat? What's a Jellicle Cat? What's a Jellicle Cat?

猫的命名 The Naming of Cats The Naming of Cats is a difficult matter It isn't just one of your holiday games You may think at first I'm mad as a hatter When I tell you a cat must have three different names

First of all, there's the name that the family use daily Such as Peter, Augustus, Alonzo or James Such as Victor or Jonathan, George or Bill Bailey All of them are sensible, everyday names

There are fancier names if you think they sound sweeter Some for the gentlemen, some for the dames Such as Plato, Admetus, Electra, Demeter But all of them sensible, everyday names

But I tell you, a cat needs a name that's particular A name that's peculiar and more dignified Else how can he keep up his tail perpendicular? Or spread out his whiskers or cherish his pride?

Of names of this kind, I can give you a quorum Such as Munkustrap, Quaxo, or Coricopat Such as Bombalurina or else Jellylorum Names that never belong to more than one cat

But above and beyond, there's still one name left over And that is the name that you never will guess The name that no human research can discover But the cat himself knows and will never confess

When you notice a cat in profound meditation The reason, I tell you, is always the same His mind is engaged in a rapt contemplation Of the thought Of the thought Of the thought Of his name His ineffable Effable Effanineffable Deep and inscrutable singular Name, name, name, name, name, name, name

杰里可舞会的邀请 The Invitation of the Jellicle Ball 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

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 Jellicle cats come one, come all The Jellicle Moon is shining bright Jellicles come to the Jellicle Ball

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 Jellcle 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 a different Jellicle life For waiting up there is the Heaviside Layer With wonders one Jellicle only will see And Jellicles ask, Because Jellicles dare: "Who will it be?"

老甘比猫 The Old Gumbie Cat I have a Gumbie Cat in mind Her name is Jennyanydots Her coat is of the tabby kind with tiger stripes and leopard spots All day she sits beneath the stairs or on the steps or on the mat She sits and sits and sits and sits and that's what makes a Gumbie Cat That's what makes a Gumbie Cat

But... When the day's hustle and bustle is done Then the Gumbie Cat's work is but hardly begun And when all the family's in bed and asleep, She tucks up her skirts to the basement to creep She is deeply concerned with the ways of the mice: Their behavior's not good and their manners not nice So when she has got them lined up on the matting She teaches them music, crocheting and tatting

I have a Gumbie Cat in mind Her name is Jennyanydots The curtain cord she likes to wind and tie it into sailor knots She sits upon the windowsill or anything that's smooth and flat She sits and sits and sits and sits and that's what makes a Gumbie Cat That's what makes a Gumbie Cat

But... When the day's hustle and bustle is done Then the Gumbie Cat's work is but hardly begun. As she finds that the mice will not ever keep quiet, She is sure it is due to irregular diet; And believing that nothing is done without trying, She sets right to work with her baking and frying. She makes them a mouse-cake of bread and dried peas, And a beautiful fry of lean bacon and cheese.

I have a Gumbie Cat in mind, her name is Jennyanydots; The curtain-cord she likes to wind, and tie it into sailor knots. She sits upon the window-sill or anything that's smooth and flat; She sits and sits and sits and sits and that's what makes a Gumbie Cat!

But... When the day's hustle and bustle is done, Then the gumbie cat's work is but hardly begun. She thinks that the cockroaches just need employment To prevent them from idle and wanton destroyment. So she's formed, from that lot of disorderly louts, A troop of well-disciplined helpful boy-scouts, With a purpose in life and a good deed to do And she's even created a Beetles Tattoo!

For she's a jolly good fellow!

Thank you, my dears!

兰·堂·塔格 The Rum Tum Tugger The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat If you offer me pheasant, I'd rather have grouse If you put me in a house, I would much prefer a flat If you put me in a flat, then I'd rather have a house If you set me on a mouse, then I only want a rat If you set me on a rat, then I'd rather chase a mouse

The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat And there isn't any need for me to shout it For he will do as he do do And there's no doing anything about it!

The Rum Tum Tigger is a terrible bore

When you let me in, then I want to go out I'm always on the wrong side of every door And as soon as I'm at home, then I'd like to get about I like to lie in the bureau drawer, But I make such a fuss if I can't get out

The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat

And there isn't any need for you to doubt it For he will do as he do do And there's no doing anything about it!

The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious beast

My disobliging ways are a matter of habit If you offer me fish, then I always want a feast When there isn't any fish, then I won't eat rabbit If you offer me cream, then I sniff and snear For I only like what I find for myself So you'll catch me in it right up to my ears If you put it away on the larder shelf

The Rum Tum Tugger is artful and knowing The Rum Tum Tugger

Doesn't care for a cuddle But I'll leap upon your lap in the middle of your sewing For there's nothing I enjoy like a horrible muddle!

The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat The Rum Tum Tugger doesn't care for a cuddle The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat And there isn't any need for me to spout it

For he will do as he do do

And there's no doing anything about it!

格瑞泽贝拉：魅力猫 Grizabella: The Glamour Cat Remark the cat who hesitates toward you In the light of the door which opens on her like a grin You see the border of her coat is torn and stained with sand And you see the corner of her eye twist like a crooked pin

She haunted many a low resort near the grimy road of Tottenham Court She flitted about the No Man's Land From "The Rising Sun" to "The Friend at Hand" And the postman sighed as he scratched his head "You'd really had thought she ought to be dead" And who would ever suppose that that was Grizabella the glamour cat

Grizabella, the glamour cat, Grizabella, the glamour cat Who would ever suppose that that was Grizabella the glamour cat

巴斯特弗·琼斯 Bustopher Jones Bustopher Jones is not skin and bones In fact, he's remarkably fat He doesn't haunt pubs, he has eight or nine clubs For he's the St. James Street cat He's the cat we all greet as we walk down the street In his coat of fastidious black No common-place mousers have such well-cut trousers Or such an impeccable back In the whole of St. James's the smartest of names is The name of this Brummell of cats And we're all of us proud to be nodded or bowed to By Bustopher Jones in white spats

My visits are occasional to the senior educational And it is against the rules For any one cat to belong both to that And the joint superior schools

When I'm seen in a hurry there's probably curry At the Siamese or at the Glutton When I look full of gloom then I've lunched at the tomb On cabbage, rice pudding and mutton

In the whole of St. James's the smartest of names is The name of this Brummell of cats And we're all of us proud to be nodded or bowed to By Bustopher Jones in white, Bustopher Jones in white Bustopher Jones in white spats

So much in this way passes Bustopher's day At one club or another he's found It can be no surprise that under our eyes He has grown unmistakably round

He's a twenty-five pounder or I am a bounder

And he's putting on weight every day

But I'm so well preserved because I've observed All my life a routine and I'd say I am still in my prime, I shall last out my time That's the word from this stoutest of cats

It must and it shall be spring in Pall Mall While Bustopher Jones wears white, Bustopher Jones wears white Bustopher Jones wears white spats

蒙哥杰瑞与兰普蒂瑟 Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer Mungojerrie and Rumpelteazer were a notorious couple of cats As knockabout clowns, quick-change comedians Tight-rope walkers and acrobats They had an extensive reputation, made their home in Victoria Grove That was merely their center of operation for they were incurably given to rove

If the area window was found ajar and the basement looked like a field of war If a tile or two came loose on the roof which presently ceased to be waterproof If the drawers were pulled out from bedroom chests And you couldn't find one of your winter vests Or after supper one of the girls suddenly missed her Woolworth pearls

Then the family would say "It's that horrible cat! It was Mungojerrie or Rumpelteazer!" And most of the time they left it at that

Mungojerrie and Rumpelteazer had an unusual gift of the gab They were highly efficient cat burglars as welland remarkably smart at a smash and grab They made their home in Victoria Grove, they had no regular occupation They were plausible fellows who liked to engage a friendly policeman in conversation

When the family assembled for Sunday dinner Their minds made up that they wouldn't get thinner on Argentine joint, potatoes and greens Then the cook would appear from behind the scenes And say in a voice that was broken with sorrow "I'm afraid you must wait and have dinner tomorrow The joint has gone from the oven like that!"

Then the family would say "It's that horrible cat! It was Mungojerrie or Rumpelteazer!" And most of the time they left it at that

Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer had a wonderful way of working together And some of the time you would say it was luck and some of the time you would say it was weather They'd go through the house like a hurricane and no sober person could take his oath Wasn't it Mungojerrie and Rumpelteazer? Or could you have sworn that it mightn't be both? When you heard a dining room smash or up from the pantry there came a loud crash Or down from the library came a loud ping From a vase which was commonly said to be Ming Then the family would say, "Now which was which cat? It was Mungojerrie and Rumpelteazer and there's nothing at all to be done about that!"

老狄尤特洛诺米 Old Deuteronomy I believe it is Old Deuteronomy Well, of all things can it be really No, Yes, H o, Hi, Oh my eye! My mind may be wandering, but I confess I believe it is Old Deuteronomy

Old Deuteronomy's lived a long time He's a cat who has lived many lives in succession He was famous in proverb and famous in rhyme A long while before Queen Victoria's accession Old Deuteronomy's buried nine wives And more I am tempted to say ninety-nine And his numerous progeny prospers and thrives And the village is proud of him in his decline At the sight of that placid and bland physiognomy When he sits in the sun on the vicarage wall The oldest inhabitant croaks

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

Old Deuteronomy sits in the street, He sits in the High Street on market day; The bullocks may below, the sheep they may bleat, But the dogs and the herdsmen will turn them away. The cats and the lorrie run over the kerb, And the villagers put up a notice: ROAD CLOSED -- So that nothing untoward may chance to disturb Deuteronomy's reset when he feels so disposed Or when he's engaged in domestic economy: And the Oldest Inhabitant croaks

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

Old Deuteronomy lies on the floor Of the Fox and French Horn for his afternoon sleep; And when the men say: 'There's just time for one more," Then the landlady from her back parlour will peep And say: "Now then, out you go, by the back door, For Old Deuteronomy mustn't be woken -- I'll have the police if there's any uproar" -- And out they all shuffle, without a word spoken. The digestive repose of that feline's gastronomy Must never be borken, whatever befall: And the Oldest Inhabitant croaks: "Well, of all ...

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

My legs may be tottery I must go slow And be careful of Old Deuteronomy

狗咬狗的恐怖事件 The Pekes and the Pollicles Of the awful battle of the Pekes and the Pollicles Together with some account Of the participation of the Pugs and the Poms And the intervention of the Great Rumpus Cat

The Pekes and the Pollicles everyone knows Are proud and implacable passionate foes It is always the same wherever one goes And the Pugs and the Poms although most people say That they do not like fighting yet once in a way They now and again join into the fray

And they... Bark! Bark! Bark! Bark! Bark! Bark! BARK! BARK! Until you can hear them all over the Park

Now on the occasion of which I shall speak Almost nothing had happened for nearly a week And that's a long time for a Pol or a Peke The big Police Dog was away from his beat I don't know the reason, but most people think He'd slipped into the Wellington's Arms for a drink And no one at all was about on the street When a Peke and a Pollicle happened to meet

They did not advance or exactly retreat But they glared at each other and scraped their hind feet

And started to... Bark! Bark! Bark! Bark! Bark! Bark! BARK! BARK! Until you can hear them all over the Park

And they... Bark! Bark! Bark! Bark! Bark! Bark! BARK! BARK! Until you can hear them all over the Park

Now the Peke although people may say what they please Is no British Dog, but a Heathen Chinese And so all the Pekes, when they heard the uproar Some came to the window, some came to the door There were surely a dozen, more likely a score And together they started to grumble and wheeze In their huffery-snuffery Heathen Chinese But a terrible din is what Pollicles like For your Pollicle Dog is a dour Yorkshire tyke

There are dogs out of every nation The Irish, the Welsh and the Dane The Russian, the Dutch, the Dalmatian And even from China and Spain, The Poodle, the Pom, the Alsatian And the mastiff who walks on a chain And to those that are frisky and frollical Let my meaning be perfectly plain That my name it is Little Tom Pollicle And you'd better not do it again

And his braw Scottish cousins are snappers and biters And every dog-jack of them notable fighters And so they stepped out with their pipers in order Playing When the Blue Bonnets Come Over the Border

Then the Pug and the Poms held no longer aloof But some from the balcony, some from the roof Join to the din with a... Bark! Bark! Bark! Bark! Bark! Bark! BARK! BARK! Until you can hear them all over the Park

Huffary Snuffary! Huffary Snuffary! Huffary Snuffary! Huffary Snuff!

Until you can hear them all over the Park

When these bold heroes together assembled The traffic all stopped, and the Underground trembled And some of the neighbors were so much afraid That they started to ring up the Fire Brigade When suddenly, up from the a small basement flat Why who should stalk out but the Great Rumpus Cat

His eyes were like fireballs fearfully blazing He gave a great yawn and his jaws were amazing And when he looked out through the bars of the area You never saw anything fiercer or hairier And what with the glare of his eyes and his yawning The Pekes and the Pollicles quickly took warning He looked at the sky and he gave a great leap And they every last one of them scattered like sheep

And when the Police Dog returned to his beat There wasn't a single one left in the street

All hail and all power to the Great Rumpus Cat!

Jellicle cats and dogs all must Pollice Dogs and cats all must Like undertakers come to dust

杰里可舞会 The Jellicle Ball 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 are black and white Jellicle Cats are rather small Jellicle Cats are merry and bright And pleasant to hear when we caterwaul

Jellicle Cats have cheerful faces Jellicle cats have bright black eyes We like to practice our airs and graces And wait for the Jellicle Moon to rise

Jellicle Cats develop slowly Jellicle cats are not too big Jellicle cats are roly-poly We know how to dance a Gavotte and a jig Until the Jellicle Moon appears Make our toilette and take our repose Jellicles wash behind their ears Jellicles dry between their toes

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

Jellicle cats are black and white Jellicle cats as we said are small If it happens to be a stormy night We will practice a caper or two in the hall

If it happens the sun is shining bright You would say we had nothing to do at all We are resting and saving ourselves to be right For the Jellicle Moon and the Jellicle Ball

Jellicle cats come out tonight Jellicle cats come one come all The Jellicle Moon is shining bright Jellicles come to the Jellicle Ball

回忆之一 Memory No.1（很经典） Silence (Midnight), not a sound from the pavement Has the moon lost her memory, She is smiling alone In the lamplight the withered leaves collect at my feet And the wind begins to moan. Every street lamp seems to beat a fatalistic warning Someone mutters and the street lamp gutters, And soon it will be morning. Memory. All alone in the moonlight I can smile at the old days I was beautiful then. I remember the time I knew what happiness was, Let the memory live again.

[MP=380,50,true]http://www.bignose.263.net/images/music/music/engold/Memory.wma[/MP]

幸福时刻 The Moments of Happiness The moments of happiness We had the experience but missed the meaning And approach to the meaning restores the experience. In a different form beyond any meaning we can assign to happiness The past experience revived in the meaning Is not the experience of one life only But of many generations Not forgetting something that is probably quite ineffable

Moonlight Turn your face to the moonlight Let your memory lead you Open up enter in If you find there the meaning of what happiness is Then a new life will begin

剧院猫格斯 Gus the Theatre Cat Gus is the cat at the theatre door His name as I ought to have told you before Is really Asparagus, but that's such a fuss to pronounce That we usually call him just Gus His coat's very shabby, he's thin as a rake And he suffers from palsy that makes his paw shake Yet he was in his youth quite the Smartest of Cats But no longer a terror to mice or to rats

For he isn't the cat that he was in his prime Though his name was quite famous, he says, in his time And whenever he joins his friends at their club (Which takes place at the back of the neighboring pub) He loves to regale them, if someone else pays With anecdotes drawn from his palmiest days For he once was a star of the highest degree He has acted with Irving, he's acted with Tree And he likes to relate his success on the halls Where the gallery once gave him seven cat calls But his greatest creation as he loves to tell Was Firefrorefiddle, the Fiend of the Fell

I have played in my time every possible part And I used to know seventy speeches by heart I'd extemporize backchat, I knew how to gag And I knew how to let the cat out of the bag I knew how to act with my back and my tail With an hour of rehearsal, I never could fail I'd a voice that would soften the hardest of hearts Whether I took the lead, or in character parts I have sat by the bedside of poor little Nell When the curfew was rung then I swung on the bell In the pantomime season, I never fell flat And I once understudied Dick Whittington's cat But my grandest creation, as history will tell Was Firefrorefiddle, the Fiend of the Fell

Then if someone will give him a toothful of gin He will tell how he once played a part in East Lynne At a Shakespeare performance, he once walked on pat When some actor suggested the need for a cat

And I say now these kittens, they do not get trained As we did in the days when Victoria reigned They never get drilled in a regular troupe And they think they are smart just to jump through a hoop

And he says as he scratches himself with his claws Well theatre is certainly not what is was These modern productions are all very well But there's nothing to equal from what I hear tell That moment of mystery when I made history As Firefrorefiddle, the Fiend of the Fell

I once crossed the stage on a telegraph wire To rescue a child when a house was on fire And I think that I still can much better than most Produce blood-curdling noises to bring on the Ghost And I once played Growltiger Could do it again, could do it again Could do it again . . .

格罗泰格的最后一战 Growltiger's Last Stand Growltiger was a Bravo Cat, who travelled on a barge: In fact he was the roughest cat that ever roamed at large. From Gravesend up to Oxford he pursued his evil aims, Rejoicing in his title of the "Terror of the Thames". His manners and appearance did not calculate to please; His coat was torn and seedy, it was baggy at the knees; One ear was somewhat missing, no need to tell you why, And he scowled upon a hostile world from one forbidding eye.

The cottagers of Rotherhithe knew something of his fame; At Hammersmith and Putney, people shuddered at his name. They would fortify the hen house, lock up the silly goose, When the rumor ran along the shore: Growltiger's om the loose!

Woe to the weak canary, that fluttered from its cage; Woe to the pampered Pekinese, that faced Growltiger's rage; Woe the bristly Bandicoot, that lurks on foreign ships, And woe to any Cat with whom Growltiger came to grips!

But most to Cats of foreign race his hatred had been vowed; To Cats of foreign name and race, no quarter was allowed. The Persian and the Siamese regarded him with fear -- Because it was a Siamese had mauled his missing ear.

Now on a peaceful summer night, all nature seemed at play, The tender moon was shining bright, the barge at Molesey lay. All in the balmy moonlight it lay rocking on the tide -- And Growltiger was disposed to show his sentimental side.

His bucko mate, Grumbuskin, long since had disappeared, For to the Bell at Hampton he had gone to wet his heard; And his bosun, Tumblebrutus, he too had stol'n away -- In the yard behind the Lion he was prowling for his prey.

In the forepeak of the vessel, Growltiger sate alone, Concentrating his attention on the Lady Griddlebone. And his raffish crew were sleeping in their barrels and their bunks -- As the Siamese came creeping in their sampans and their junks.

Growltiger had no eye or ear for aught but Griddlebone, And the Lady seemed enraptured by his manly baritone, Disposed to relaxation, and awaiting no surprise -- But the moonlight shone reflected from a thousand bright blue eyes.

And closer still and closer the sampans circled round, And yet from all the enemy there was not heard a sound. The lovers sang their last duet, in danger of their lives -- For the foe was armed with toasting forks and cruel carving knives.

Then Genghis gave the signal to his fierce Mongolian horde; With a frightful burst of fireworks the Chinks they swarmed aboard. Abandoning their sampans, and their pullaways and junks, They battened down the hatches on the crew within their bunks.

Then Griddlebone she gave a screech, for she was badly skeered; I am sorry to admit it, but she quickly disappeared. She probably escaped with ease, I'm sure she was not drowned -- But a serried ring of flashing steel Growltiger did surround.

The ruthless foe presssed forward, in stubborn rank on rank; Growltiger to his vast surprise was forced to walk the plank. He who a hundred victims had driven to that drop, At the end of all his crimes was forced to go ker-flip, ker-flop.

Oh there was joy in Wapping when the news flew through the land; At Maidenhead and Henley there was dancing on the Strand. Rats were roasted whole in Brentford and Victoria Dock, And a day of celebration was commanded in Bangkok!

These modern productions are all very well But there's nothing to equal from what I hear tell That moment of mystery when I made history

比利·麦考尔的叙事诗 The Ballad of Billy M'Caw Oh, how well I remember the Old Bull and Bush Where we used to go down on a Saturday night Where when anything happened, it come with a rush For the boss, Mr. Clark, he was very polite

A very nice house, from basement to garret A very nice house Ah, but it was the parrot The parrot, the parrot named Billy McCaw That brought all those folks to the bar Ah, he was the life of the bar

Of a Saturday night, we was all feeling bright And Lily La Rose, the barmaid that was She'd say, "Billy, Billy McCaw! Come give us, come give us a dance on the bar!" And Billy would dance on the bar And Billy would dance on the bar And then we'd feel balmy, in each eye a tear And emotion would make us all order more beer

Lily, she was a girl what had brains in her 'ead She wouldn't have nothing, no not that much said If it come to an argument or a dispute She'd settle it offhand with the toe of her boot Or as likely as not put a fist through your eye Or when we was happy and just a bit dry Or when we was thirsty and just a bit sad, She would rap on the bar with that corkscrew she 'ad

And say "Billy, Billy McCaw! "Come give us a tune on your pastoral flute!" And Billy'd strike up on his pastoral flute And Billy'd strike up on his pastoral flute And then we'd feel balmy, in each eye a tear And emotion would make us all order more beer

"Billy, Billy McCaw! Come give us a tune on your moley guitar!" And Billy'd strike up on his moley guitar And Billy'd strike up on his moley guitar And then we'd feel balmy, in each eye a tear And emotion would make us all order more beer

Billy, Billy McCaw! Come give us a tune on your moley guitar

Ah! He was the life of the bar.

斯金伯山克斯 Skimbleshanks

Skimbleshanks the Railway Cat the cat of the railway train There's a whisper down the line at eleven thirty-nine When the night mail's ready to depart Saying, "Skimble, where is Skimble? Has he gone to hunt the thimble? We must find him or the train can't start!" All the guards and all the porters and the stationmaster's daughters Would be searching high and low Saying, "Skimble, where is Skimble? For unless he's very nimble Then the night mail just can't go!" At eleven forty-two with the signal overdue And the passengers all frantic to a man That's when I would appear and I'd saunter to the rear I'd been busy in the luggage van! Then gave one flash of his glass-green eyes And the signal went "All clear!" They'd be off at last for the northern part of the Northern Hemisphere Skimbleshanks, the railway cat, the cat of the railway train You might say that by and large it was me who was in charge Of the Sleeping Car Express From the driver and the guards to the bagmen playing cards I would supervise them all more or less Down the corridor he paces and examines all the faces Of the travelers in the first and the third He established control by a regular patrol And he'd know at once if anything occurred He would watch you without winking and he saw what you were thinking And it's certain that he didn't approve Of hilarity and riot, so the folk were very quiet When Skimble was about and on the move You could play no pranks with Skimbleshanks He's a cat that couldn't be ignored So nothing went wrong on the Northern Mail When Skimbleshanks was aboard

It was very pleasant when they'd foud their little den With their name wrtten up on the door And the berth was very neat with a newly folded sheet on And not a speck of dust on the floor There was every sort of light you make it dark or bright And a button you could turn to make a breeze And a funny little basin you're supposed to wash your face in And a crank to shut the window should you sneeze Then the guard looked in politely and would ask you very brightly Do you like your morning tea weak or strong But I was just behind him and was ready to remind him For Skimble won't let anything go wrong When they crept into their cozy berth and pulled the counterpane They ought to reflect that it was very nice To know that they wouldn't be bothered by mice They can leave all that to the Railway Cat The cat of the railway train

Skimbleshanks the railway cat the cat of the railway train In the watches of the night I was always fresh and bright Every now and then I'd have a cup of tea With perhaps a drop of scotch while I was keeping on the watch Only stopping here and there to catch a flea They were fast asleep at Crewe And so they never knew that I was walking up and down the station They were sleeping all the while I was busy at Carlisle Where I met the stationmaster with elation

They might see me at Dumfries if I summoned the police If there was anything they ought to know about When they got to Gallowgate, there they did not have to wait For Skimbleshanks will help them to get out And he gives you a wave of his long brown tail Which says, "I'll see you again" You'll meet without fail on the Midnight Mail The cat of the railway train

You'll meet without fail on the Midnight Mail The cat of the railway train

马卡维提 Macavity Macavity's a mystery cat: He's called the Hidden Paw For he's a master criminal who can defy the law He's the bafflement of Scotland Yard, the Flying Squad's despair For when they reach the scene of crime Macavity's not there!

Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like Macavity He's broken every human law, he breaks the law of gravity His powers of levitation would make a fakir stare And when you reach the scene of crime Macavity's not there You may seek him in the basement, you may look up in the air But I tell you once and once again Macavity's not there!

Macavity's a ginger cat, he's very tall and thin You'd know him if you saw him for his eyes are sunken in His brow is deeply lined in 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 awake

Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like Macavity He's a fiend in feline shape, monster of depravity You may meet him in a by-street, you may see him in the square, But 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 stifled Or the greenhouse glass is broken and the trellis past repair There's the wonder of the thing Macavity's not there!

Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like Macavity There never was a cat of such deceitfulness and suavity He always has an alibi, and one or two to spare Whatever 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, I might mention Griddlebone Are nothing more than agents for the cat who all the time Just controls the operations: the Napoleon of Crime! Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like Macavity He's a fiend in feline shape, a monster of depravity You may meet him in a by-street, you may see him in the square But when a crime's discovered then Macavity, Macavity Macavity, Macavity When a crime's discovered then Macavity's not there!

Macavity's not there! We have to find Old Deuteronomy...

神奇的密斯达弗利斯先生 The Magical Mr. Mistoffelees You ought ask Mr. Mistoffelees The original Conjuring Cat The greatest magicians have something to learn From Mr. Mistoffolees Conjuring Turn And you'll all say: Oh! Well, I never! Was there ever a cat so clever as magical Mr. Mistoffelees?

He is quiet, he is small, he is black From the ears to the tip of his tail He can creep through the tiniest crack He can walk on the narrowest rail He can pick any card from a pack He is equally cunning with dice He is always deceiving you into believing That he's only hunting for mice

He can play any trick with a cork Or a spoon and a bit of fish paste And if you look for a knife or a fork And you think it is merely misplaced You have seen it one moment and then it is gone! But you find it next week lying on the lawn

And we all say: Oh! Well, I never! Was there ever a cat so clever as magical Mr. Mistoffelees? Oh! Well, I never! Was there ever a cat so clever as magical Mr. Mistoffelees? Oh! Well, I never! Was there ever a cat so clever as magical Mr. Mistoffelees? Oh! Well, I never! Was there ever a cat so clever as magical Mr. Mistoffelees?

My manner is vague and aloof You would think there was nobody shyer But voice has been heard on the roof When I was curled up by the fire And have sometimes been heard by the fire When I was about on the roof At least they all heard that somebody purred Which is uncontestable proof of my singular magical powers And I've known the family to call me in from the garden for hours While I was asleep in the hall

And not long ago, this phenomenal cat Produced seven kittens right out of a hat!

And we all say: Oh! Well, I never! Was there ever a cat so clever as magical Mr. Mistoffelees? Oh! Well, I never! Was there ever a cat so clever as magical Mr. Mistoffelees?

And not long ago, this phenomenal cat Produced seven kittens right out of a hat!

Oh! Well, I never! Was there ever a cat so clever as magical Mr. Mistoffelees?

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the magical Mr. Mistoffelees

回忆之二 Memory No.2 Daylight, see the dew on a sunflower And a rose that is fading Roses whither away Like the sunflower I yearn to turn my face to the dawn I am waiting for the day

Now 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 a different Jellicle life

Memory, turn your face to the moonlight Let your memory lead you Open up, enter in If you find there the meaning of what happiness is Than a new life will begin

Memory, all alone in the moonlight I can smile at the old days I was beautiful then I remember a time I knew what happiness was Let the memory live again

Burnt out ends of smoky days The stale cold smell of morning The streetlamp dies, another night is over Another day is dawning

Daylight, I must wait for the sunrise I must think of the new life And I mustn't give in When the dawn comes tonight will be a memory too And the new day will begin

Sunlight, through the trees in summer Endless masquerading Like a flower as the dawn is breaking The memory is fading

Touch me, it's so easy to leave me All alone with the memory Of my days in the sun If you touch me, you'll understand what happiness is Look, a new day has begun

通往九重天之路 The Journey to the Heaviside Layer Up, up, up past the Russell Hotel Up, up, up, up to the Heaviside Layer

Up, up, up past the Russell Hotel Up, up, up, up to the Heaviside Layer

Up, up, up past the Russell Hotel Up up up up to the Heaviside Layer

Up, up, up past the Russell Hotel Up, up, up, up to the Heaviside layer

Up, up, up past the Jellicle Moon Up, up, up, up to the Heaviside Layer

Up, up, up past the Jellicle moon Up, up, up, up to the Heaviside Layer

The mystical divinity of unashamed felinity Round the cathedral rang 'Vivat' Life to the everlasting cat!

对待猫的态度 The Ad-dressing of Cats You've heard of several kinds of cat And my opinion now is that You should need no interpreter to understand our character You've learned enough to take the view That cats are very much like you You've seen us both at work and games And learnt about our proper names Our habits and habitat But how would you ad-dress a cat?

So first, your memory I'll jog And say: a cat is not a dog So first, your memory I'll jog And say: a cat is not a dog

With cats, some say one rule is true Don't speak 'til you are spoken to Myself, I do not hold with that I say you should ad-dress a cat But always bear in mind that he resents familiarity You bow and taking off your hat, ad-dress him in this form, "O' Cat!" Before a cat will condescend To treat you as a trusted friend A little token of esteem is needed, like a dish of cream And you might now and then supply Some caviar or Straussburg pie Some potted grouse or salmon paste He's sure to have his personal taste

And so in time you reach your aim And call him by his name

A cat's entitled to expect These evidences of respect So this is this and that is that And there's how you ad-dress a cat

A cat's entitled to expect These evidences of respect So this is this and that is that And there's how you ad-dress a cat

THE END

《猫》中的猫儿们

音《猫》中的猫儿多得让你数不清。即便许多看过音乐剧《猫》的人，也还是没有完全弄明白。因为这里面的猫实在太多，而且各有特点，要全部记住确实要伤不少脑筋。

　　好在《猫》的剧情相当简单，如果你没有记住猫儿的特性，照样能很顺利得看懂这出戏。但是，如果你能对每只猫儿多了解一点，相信一定能让你看得更有意思。

　　瞧！猫儿们已经迫不及待要亮相了！

　　Old Deuteronomy老杜特洛内米-----领袖猫 　　"领袖猫"是猫族的首领，他的年纪很大，而且饱读诗书，充满智慧和经验。在整个部落里，他最受尊敬和爱戴。平时他很少出现在猫族中，日常事务都由年轻的"英雄猫"来处理。但是在一年一度的舞会上，领袖猫是一定会来的，因为只有他才有资格挑选获得重生的猫儿。 　　"领袖猫"是只几乎没有花纹的大灰猫。与其他猫儿不同，他的皮是像斗篷一样披在身上的，这显得他身材十分硕大。他的个子也很高，在舞台上比其他的猫更有气势。

　　Grizabella格里泽贝拉猫------魅力猫 　　"魅力猫"是全剧最重要的角色。她年轻时是猫族里最美丽的母猫。可是后来她厌倦了猫群的生活，离开了猫族去看外面的世界。然而，外面的世界显然并没有令"魅力猫"更快乐，当她再次回到猫族的时候，"魅力猫"已经变成了一只蓬头垢面，苍老丑陋的老猫了。猫儿们不愿接受这个背叛猫族的流浪者，整个猫族对她非常敌视。 　　"魅力猫"身上的灰土掩盖了她的本来毛色，从她的头发和脸庞来看，她的皮毛大概是灰色与黑色相间。与其他猫相比，她的样子最像人类：她长发披肩，身上穿着黑色晚礼服短裙和灰色皮衣，脚上甚至穿了一双高跟鞋。

　　Munkustrap蒙克斯崔普----英雄猫 　　"英雄猫"是猫族的二把手。在"领袖猫"不在的时候，他负责照顾整个猫族。在《猫》剧中，他负责解说，并把所有故事串连在一起，因此是剧中最重要的角色之一。 　　我们还可以看出一些"英雄猫"的特点，他的勇敢，机智和责任心都是猫族中最突出的。 　　"英雄猫"是一只银灰色夹杂黑色的花猫，与其他猫相比他的个子比较高，属于纤长的体形。他是一只较年轻的成年猫。

　　Jennyanydots詹尼安点点-----"褓姆猫" 　　"褓姆猫"是猫族中的褓姆。白天她一般都显得得懒散，整天睡啊睡，最后睡成了一只体态臃肿，但不失可爱的大肥猫。但一到晚上，她便非常繁忙，因为她要训练老鼠织毛衣，还要为蟑螂失业的问题担忧。"褓姆猫"还喜欢对出身望族的同类阿谀奉承。 　　"褓姆猫"的肤色以灰白色为主，上面还有虎纹与豹斑。她体态臃肿，尤其是下身特别肥大，这是坐得太多的缘故。

　　Bombalurina邦巴露娜---- "迷人猫" 　　"迷人猫"是只十分美丽而诱人的猫。她很喜欢和成年的公猫一起说笑。可以说"迷人猫"是剧中成熟女性的代表。在"杰利克之歌"一曲中，也是全剧舞会高潮的一段，整个舞台基本上是阴冷的青蓝色调，唯有"迷人猫"为首的一段舞蹈，舞台上却充溢着温暖明媚的红色灯光。这使她红色的毛皮显得份外艳丽。 　　"迷人猫"显然和"犯罪猫"认识，甚至有可能是"犯罪猫"以前的伴侣。这从那首著名的"麦卡维蒂"的歌词中可以感受到。

　　Rum tum tugger若腾塔格-----"摇滚猫" 　　"摇滚猫"若腾塔格性格反覆無常而且反叛，只喜欢得不到的东西。 　　他是猫中的摇滚歌星,他的歌也是傲气十足的摇滚乐，最受母猫的欢迎。他在聚光灯的照耀下狂舞，尽情享受母猫们疯狂的迷恋。 　　"摇滚猫"的个子很高，动作矫健而有爆发力，是只很有男性魅力的成年公猫。

　　Mistoffelees米斯托弗里----魔术猫 　　米斯托弗里是只"魔术猫"。他拥有其他猫所没有的魔力，这让他在猫群里受到了广泛的尊敬。"魔术猫"体型轻巧，动作灵敏，可以穿过任何细小的洞口和不可想象的缝隙，也可以连续在舞台上高高跳起。 　　他最重要的成就是在"领袖猫"被"犯罪猫"劫持之后，用奇异的魔法使场上的电灯重亮，而且成功地"领袖猫"变回。 　　"魔术猫"全身黑色，只有鼻子，胸前是白色，很少说话。他和"摇滚猫"是非常要好的朋友。

　　Skimbleshanks史金波旋克斯-----铁路猫 　　"铁路猫"是很有责任感的猫，卧铺车厢基本上归他全权管理。他在火车上的重要性非常高，火车没有他就不能按时出站。所以我们看到他总是跑东跑西，忙个不停。 　　"铁路猫"是一只白色带浅黄花纹的成年公猫，他拥有一张十分快乐的脸。

　　Macavity麦卡维蒂-----"犯罪猫" 　　"犯罪猫"麦卡维蒂是"犯罪界的拿破仑"，罪大恶极却总能逍遥于法外。他率领着一群肮脏的老鼠，做尽了坏事，可是每当大家赶到现场的时候，"犯罪猫"早已不见踪影。 　　他曾经成功取得"迷人猫"邦巴露娜和蒂米特的欢心，并欲与蒂米特重燃爱火。他把老杜特洛內米掳走，就是要扰乱这个舞会，然后伺机亲近蒂米特。

　　Victoria维克多利亚---纯白猫 　　纯白猫的纯白毛色反映了她的天真和单纯，她的纯朴本能促使她乐于帮助弱者。她羞怯地向欲回归猫族的"魅力猫"伸手，却遭到遭"褓姆猫"阻止。

　　Mungojerry and Rumpleteazer蒙哥杰利与蓝蓓蒂泽---小偷猫 　　蒙哥杰利和蓝蓓蒂泽都是"小偷猫"，他们形影不离，是配合默契的最佳搭档。他们淘气而且顽皮，总在一起做坏事，最喜欢恶作剧和偷窃，而且经常能避过追捕，但最后还是"英雄猫"所悉破和受到惩罚。

　　Gus格斯----"剧院猫" 　　格斯是一只剧院里的老猫。他的本名叫阿斯帕拉格斯(Asparagus)，可是因为这名字很难念，大家都叫他格斯(Gus)。格斯的年纪相当大，可是"剧院猫"年轻的时候，却是剧团里的风云人物。现在一切都成为回忆，年迈的"剧院猫"只能在酒肆中回味他在聚光灯下的耀眼时光。 　　在剧中，年迈的"剧院猫"缅怀年轻时扮演"海盗头子"格罗泰格，他向格里德伯恩求爱，但却因他的宿敌出现而无法得逞，最后还被侵略者迫上生命的末路。

　　Bustopher Jones布斯托夫·琼-----"富贵猫" 　　"富贵猫"是一只受过教育的、整齐得体的、上层社会的猫。他总是穿最好的衣服，上最好的馆子，这一点，让他在猫族里很受尊敬。"富贵猫"相当胖，他很喜欢吃，然而他却坚持自己保养得很好，仍在最佳状态而并非肥胖。 　　"富贵猫"全身黑色，只有白色的鼻尖和领口，总是挺着大肚子，舞台上他身穿燕尾服，用小汤勺作拐杖，很有绅士风度。

　　RumpusCat -----"超人猫" 　　"超人猫"是猫中的"超人"。他和超人一样拥有无比的威力。当所有狗疯狂地咬在一起打架的时候，"超人猫"只要一现身，就能把他们全吓跑。因此他也是猫中的英雄。
