Monsieur Le Chat Botté

Listen to the hard-to-believe story
Of this man who had nothing
But a wretched cat who managed
To change his destiny
By putting on boots, eating an ogre
In no time he magically transformed
His unfortunate master
Into the Marquis of Carabas

Mr. Puss, Puss in Boots
You won't scratch me
I came to say hello to you
While taking a little walk
You are the fairest of cats
In this strange castle
With your boots, your hat
Your sword, and your beautiful coat

[Puss in Boots]
I am Puss, Puss in Boots
I don't want to scratch you

[Chantal]
If you defend children

[Puss in Boots]
The poor, the good people

[Chantal]
Give me, give me your arm
To dance with me
Mr. Puss, Puss in Boots
To take three little steps

Ah, what an encounter! It's a cat that counts
Meows, and purrs
That, without using its claws
Dances to the music like a mischievous rat

[Puss in Boots]
Take my light paw, my dear

[Chantal]
Well, you goddang animal
Let's join the dance
The party begins
[Duo]
We will open the ball

Mr. Puss, Puss in Boots
You won't scratch me
I came to say hello to you
While taking a little walk
You are the fairest of cats
In this strange castle
With your boots, your hat
Your sword, and your beautiful coat

[Puss in Boots]
I am Puss, Puss in Boots
I don't want to scratch you

[Chantal]
If you defend children

[Puss in Boots]
The poor, the good people

[Chantal]
Give me, give me your arm
To dance with me
Mr. Puss, Puss in Boots
To take three little steps

Mr. Puss, Puss in Boots
You won't scratch me
I came to say hello to you
While taking a little walk
You are the fairest of cats
I come to this castle tonight
To dance with you
Dear Mr. Puss in Boots
