Luyện nghe bài hát Gus: The Theatre Cat

Gus is the cat at the door
His name, as I to have told you before
Is really Asparagus, but such a fuss to pronounce
we usually call him just Gus

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

For he the cat that he was in his prime
Though his was quite famous, he says, in his time
And whenever he joins his at their club
Which takes at the back of the neighboring pub

He loves to regale them, if someone else
anecdotes drawn from his palmiest days
For he once was a star of the highest
He has acted Irving, he has acted with Tree

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

I have played in my time possible part
And I to know seventy speeches by heart
I'd backchat, I knew how to gag
And I how to let the cat out of the bag

I knew how to act with my back and my
With an hour of rehearsal, I could fail
I'd a voice that would soften the hardest of
I took the lead, or in character parts

I sat by the bedside of poor little Nell
the curfew was rung then I swung on the bell
In the pantomime season, I fell flat
And I once understudied Dick cats
But my creation, as history will tell
Was Firefrorefiddle, the fiend of the

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

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

And he says as he himself with his claws
Well the theater is certainly not is was
These modern productions are all well
But there's to equal from what I hear tell
moment of mystery when I made history
As Firefrorefiddle, the fiend of the
