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

Can you sing at the same time in more than one key?
Duets by Rossini

Toms
and waltzes by Strauss?
And can you (as cats do) begin with a 'C'?

All
That always triumphantly brings down the house?

Jellicle cats are queens of the nights
Singing at astronomical heights
Handling pieces from The Messiah
Hallelujah, angelical Choir

Jellicle cats are queens 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

But the cats are not alone. Humans (the audience) are present in the cats' private world. The cats are at first reluctant andsuspicious to include others in their domain

Asparagus
There's a man over there with a look of surprise
As much as to say well now how about that?

Munkustrap
Do I actually see with my own very eyes
A man who's not heard of a jellicle cat?
What's a jellicle cat?

All (Echoing)
What's a jellicle cat?

They are proud, however, and they explain to their human visitors who they are and reveal that cats have three different names: theone the family uses daily, the more dignified name and a secret name.It is the cat's contemplation of the latter that keeps felines in deep thought

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Musical is a genre of theatrical and cinematic representation born and developed in the United States of America between the 19th and 20th centuries. Its equivalent in Italy is the musical comedy, which shares the use of multiple expressive and communicative techniques. The action on stage is carried forward not only by acting, but also by music, singing and dancing that flow spontaneously and naturally, without being heavy or excessive. Musical has evolved over time, embracing different artistic forms and musical genres, from jazz to rock, passing through opera and pop. Some of the most famous musicals include "West Side Story", "The Sound of Music", "Les Misérables" and "Hamilton".
