Manchester And Liverpool [Version anglaise inédite] lyrics

Oh, pussycat, where have you been?

Don't tell me London, just to see the Queen

And don't give me no fairy tale

For I've been following your trail

Oh, pussycat, you've been untrue

I saw you prowling 'round somebody new

Now you're saying I'm uncouth

I saw you strolling on the roof

That blonde cat's the wrong cat

I know what it takes to make you happy

Loving and living

And I can give it all to you

Oh, pussycat, make up your mind

A good cat nowadays is hard to find

You can have a life of ease

We're positively Siamese1

Oh, pussycat, don't go astray

For I can lead you on the milky way2

Baby, I could fill your cup

So pussy, won't you let me up?

That blonde cat's the wrong cat

I know what it takes to make you happy

Loving and living

And I can give it all to you

La, la, la... (etc.)

1. I think this is a play on 'Siamese twins' (with the idea being she and her love interest are like "two peas in a pod") and, of course, the Siamese breed of cat.2. Like the normally generic 'I'll take you to the stars' love lyric, but with the fun twist that she's offering to take a "cat" on the "milky way" - as if it were a road of gold for a human.
