Dr. Seuss's Cat in a Hat

Fun song...

in English: cat, hat; in French, chat, chapeau
it really is quite obvious, don't you know?

in English: cat, hat; in French, chat, chapeau
un deux trois quatre cinq, here we go!

I repeat: cat, hat; in French, chat, chapeau
in Spanish, el gato in a sombrero

Kids
He's a cat, in a hat, he's a chat in a chapeau
he also is a gato in a sombrero
Ole! Ole! Ole Ole O!

Cat
Where were we? Oh, yes:
cat, hat; in French, chat, chapeau
in Spanish, el gato in a sombrero
and I'll tell you something more
now you listen to me good:
in German I'm a Katze und dieses ist meine Hut!
Ist das nicht eine Katze Hut?
Kids
Ja, das ist eine Katze Hut
Katze Hut, Katze Hut
Ja, das ist eine Katze Hut

Cat
Now, if you're in a receptive state -- of mind -- I'll recapitulate:
cat, hat; in French, chat, chapeau
in Spanish, el gato in a sombrero
in German I'm a Katze in a Hut, and don't you know,
I'm a guanka in a bunkaquank in Eskimo

Fish
You're a guanka in a bunkaquank in Eskimo?!?
Cat Right!
Kids
He's a guanka in a bunkaquank in Eskimo
Ist das nicht eine bunkaquank?
Ja, das ist eine bunkaquank.
Bunka Bunka Guanka Bunka
Yes indeedy that is sooooo
He's a guanka in a bunkaquank in Eskimo

Fish
Now to be certain that I have this straight,
I'll re-re-capitulate:
Cat, hat; in French, chat, chapeau
Cat Good!
Fish In Spanish you're a gato in a sombrero
Cat Ooh!
Fish
In German you're a Katze in a Hut, I also know:
You're a guanka in a bunkaquank in Eskimo.
Cat
By George, I think he's got it!
Fish
Now if you will allow me sir
but please don't think I'm pushin'
I think that I can tell you what you are
in -- in -- in Russian!
Cat What ?
Fish Shapka! Shlapa!
Cat HA!
Fish You're a shapka! In a shlapa!
Cat & Kids HEY!

Cat
I am?

Why that's splendid!

I'm………a………shapka,………in………a………shlapa,
I'm………a………shapka,………in………a………shlapa,
I'm……a……shapka………in……a……shlapa,
I'm……a……shapka………in……a……shlapa,
I'm…a…shapka……in…a…shlapa,
I'm…a…shapka……in…a…shlapa,
I'm a shapka…in a shlapa,
I'm a shapka in a shlapa,
I'mashapkainashlapa,
I'mashapkainashlapaI'mashapkainashlapa, aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!

That's enough of that...

I'm a cat in a hat.
