_ McCavity's a mystery [Eb] cat, he's called the Hidden Paw
_ Oh he's a master criminal, _ who can [G] defy the law
He's [Cm] the _ defilement [Bb] of Scotland Yard, the Flying Squad's [Ab] despair
[G] And when you reach the scene [A] of crime, _ [G] McCavity's not there _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _ [Cm] McCavity, _ McCavity, [F] there's no one like _ _
[C] McCavity
He's [Cm] broken every human [Ab] law, he breaks the law of [Cm] gravity
His powers of _ levitation would [F] make a fakir stare
And when you reach the [Am] scene of crime, [G] _ McCavity's not there
You [Eb] may see him [Gbm] in a basement, you may look up in the _ [B] _ air
_ But [G] I tell you once and once [E] again, _ _ [B] McCavity's not [G]
there
_ [Cm] _ _ McCavity's a ginger cat, he's very [Gbm] tall and thin
You would know him [Eb] if you saw him, for his eyes [Gb] are sunken [C] in
His brow is deeply lined in thought, his head is highly _ domed
[F] His coat is dusty from neglect, his whiskers are one-poned
He [B] sways his [A] head from side to [B] side with movements like [A] a snake
[Gm] And when you think he's [F] half [G] asleep, he's always wide awake
_ _ _ [Cm] _
_ McCavity, McCavity, [F] there's no one [D] like McCavity
[Cm] Oh, he's a fiend [Eb] in delight's shape, [F] a [D] monster of _ depravity
[C] You may meet [Eb] him in the by-street, [F] you may see him in [Gb] the square
_ But when a [Cm] crime's [Am]
discovered then, _ [G] McCavity's not there
[C] _ He's _ [Gbm] _ _ outwardly _ [Am] _ _ respectable, _ [Cm] _ _
_ _ [C] _ he _ [Bm] cheats at [A] _ cards _ _ _
And his prints _ [C] are not found in _ [Cm] _ any _ [B] files of _ _ Scotland Yard
[A] _ _ _ [B] And when the lard is [Eb] looted, [B] or the dual case is rifled
Or when the milk is [Ab] missing, or [A] another piece being _ stifled
Or [Cm] the greenhouse glass is [C] broken, _ _ [Eb] _ and the [Am] trellis past [Ab] _ repairs _
[G] There's the wonder of the thing, _ McCavity's not there
_ [Cm] _ _
_ McCavity, _ McCavity, [F] there's no one like _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _ _
McCavity
For just [F] a simple nest and swaddle, [Cm] he always has [Eb] an ally _ [F] and one of [B] respect _
_ For every [C] time a deed took [A] place, _ [Eb] McCavity wasn't there
And they say that all the cat's whose wicked deeds are widely known _ _
[Cm] Mention Mungo Jerry, [G] _ _
he's a griddle-burn
[Cm] Nothing _ _ more than _ agents [A] for the cat who all the [Ab] time
Just controls the [G] _ operations, [Db] the Napoleon [A] of [G] crime _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _
_ _ _ [F] No one like _ [C] McCavity, _ he's a [Eb] mean impiatic
_ For _ [D] long-haired frowners, _ he's [Cm] hidden in a vice _
[Am] He may be seen in the [F] square _
But when [G] a crime's discovered [A] then, _ _ McCavity's [C] not there _ _ _ _
