[ti:The Naming Of Cats] [ar:Original Cast] [al:Cats (UK)] [by:] [offset:0] [00:00.00]The Naming Of Cats - Andrew Lloyd Webber (安德鲁·劳埃德·韦伯)/Original Cast Of Cats [00:08.59]The naming of cats is a difficult matter [00:11.16] [00:12.20]It isn't just one of your holiday games [00:15.25] [00:16.18]You may think at first I'm as mad as a hatter [00:20.12]When I tell you a cat must have three different names [00:23.90]First of all there's the name that the family use daily [00:27.54]Such as Peter Augustus Alonzo or James [00:30.97] [00:31.58]Such as Victor or Jonathan George or Bill Bailey [00:36.06]All of them sensible everyday names [00:38.92] [00:39.67]There are fancier names if you think they sound sweeter [00:44.09]Some for the gentlemen some for the dames [00:46.64] [00:47.28]Such as Plato Admetus Electra Demeter [00:51.50]But all of them sensible everyday names [00:54.43] [00:55.24]But I tell you a cat needs a name that's particular [00:58.25] [00:59.08]A name that's peculiar and more dignified [01:01.82] [01:02.75]Else how can he keep up his tail perpendicular [01:05.54] [01:06.41]Or spread out his whiskers or cherish his pride [01:09.83] [01:10.45]Of names of this kind I can give you a quorum [01:14.29]Such as Munkustrap Quaxo or Coricopat [01:16.95] [01:18.17]Such as Bombalurina or else Jellylorum [01:22.22]Names that never belong to more than one cat [01:25.90]But above and beyond there's still one name left over [01:29.17] [01:29.68]And that is the name that you never will guess [01:32.86] [01:33.66]The name that no human research can discover [01:36.39] [01:36.99]But the cat himself knows and will never confess [01:40.48] [01:41.10]When you notice a cat in profound meditation [01:44.40] [01:45.03]The reason I tell you is always the same [01:48.69]His mind is engaged in a rapt contemplation [01:51.86] [01:52.51]Of the thought of the thought of the thought of his name [01:58.26] [01:59.24]His ineffable effable effanineffable [02:05.76] [02:07.56]Deep and inscrutable singular name [02:15.01]Name name name name name name
