Luyện nghe bài hát Gus, The Theatre Cat

Gus is the cat at the theater
His name, as I ought to told you before
Is really Asparagus, but that's such a fuss to
That we call him just Gus

His coat's very shabby, thin as a rake
And he suffers from palsy that his paw shake
For he was in his youth quite the of cats
But no a terror to mice or to rats

For he isn't the cat that he was in his
his name was quite famous, he says, in his time
And whenever he joins his friends at club
Which takes place at the back of the pub

He loves to them, if someone else pays
anecdotes drawn from his palmiest days
For he once was a star of the degree
He has acted with Irving, he's acted with

And he likes to relate his success on the
Where the gallery once him seven cat calls
But his greatest as he loves to tell
Was Firefrorefiddle, the fiend of the

I have played in my time every possible
And I used to know speeches by heart
I'd back chat, I knew how to gag
And I how to let the cat out of the bag

I knew how to act my back and my tail
an hour of rehearsal, I never could fail
I'd a voice that would soften the hardest of
Whether I took love or in character parts

I have sat by the bedside of poor Nell
When the was rung then I swung on the bell
In the pantomime season, I fell flat
And I understudied Dick Whittington's cat
But my grandest creation, as history tell
Was Firefrorefiddle, the fiend of the

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

And I say now these kittens, they do not get
As we did in the when Victoria reigned
They get drilled in a regular troupe
And they think, they are just to jump through a hoop

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

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