A whimsical composition on 2 cats (one adventuring out into the wild where pickles can be mistaken for rats and one who stays at home at purrs on the mat).
Three versions are available:
Alto and guitar, clarinet and guitar and men's voices
The sound sample is an electronic preview
The words are:
A thin young cat
sat
on a pickle vat slat
and spied through a slot
Inside was a lot of pickled peppers, hot! hot!
and one was fat like a rat
So she stretched out her paw
Pulled it out with her claw
and sank her teeth in firm
But it wasn't a rat
and our cat spat
and scat
from the pickle vat
A fat cat
sat
on a mat
a traditional cat
sat on a mat
cat!
A video of all three versions of this whimsy can be found on youtube at
