[MASTER OF CEREMONIES, spoken]
And now for the grand finale of our round the world revue
The Hot Box takes you out to the alley
With Miss Adelaide and her Alley Kittens

[HOT BOX GIRLS, spoken]

Hello
Purr
Purr
Meow

One meow, two meow, three meow, scat
What's the initial of my pet tomcat?
Is it A, B, C, D, E, F, G?
Is it H or J or L, M, N, O, P?
Is it L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T?
No, it's U
You're the cat for me

Meow
Meow
Uh uh
[ADELAIDE]
You know you've been mean to me
And you know when you're mean to me
How it always makes me wanna roam
And you know there's a danger
That some gentle stranger
Might pick me up and make me feel at home

So pet me, poppa
Poppa, pet me nice

[HOT BOX GIRLS, spoken]
Meow, meow

[ADELAIDE]
Ooh, pet me, poppa
Poppa, melt the ice

[HOT BOX GIRLS, spoken]
And you know how

[ADELAIDE]
If you don't want me out roaming the city
Talk to me pretty
"Here kitty, kitty"
And pet me, poppa
Poppa, pet me nice
Ooh, pet me, poppa
Poppa, pet me good

[HOT BOX GIRLS, spoken]
Meow, meow

[ADELAIDE]
Mmm, pet me poppa
Proper like you should

[HOT BOX GIRLS, spoken]
And you know how

[ADELAIDE]
If you care to keep me home by the fire
Specially when it's time to retire

[ADELAIDE & HOT BOX GIRLS]
Then pet me, poppa
Poppa, pet me good

[ADELAIDE]
Warm up my saucer of milk
And maybe I'll purr
Lay out my cushion of silk
Don't rumple my fur
Just reach over and
[ADELAIDE & HOT BOX GIRLS]
Pet me, poppa

[ADELAIDE]
Poppa, melt the ice
If you don't want me out roaming the city

[ADELAIDE & HOT BOX GIRLS]
Talk to me pretty
"Here kitty, kitty"
And pet me, poppa
That's my good advice
Pet me, poppa, meow
Pet me, poppa, rrr
Pet me, poppa
Poppa, pet me
That'll get me
Pet me. poppa
Poppa, pet me nice!
