lyrics

Just let me out just let me out!
Open the door there out to the yard
let me get out there now the cat demands!
I need to stretch sharpen my claws and roam the woody glen

Let me back in let me back in!
Open the door there I must have food,
I can't stay outside.
Let's have some fish! Let's have some fish!
Oh hurry! Be quick or I'll bite!
You call this fresh?
Oh what a liberty!
Just let me out Open the door
A fine fat bird! I must have him now
Just let me out!
The cheeky thing!
He's coming this way... Blast! I've been seen!
Let me back in. Let me back in!
I must have food.
Open a tin now!
Oh what a feast!
My tum needs scratching
Oh stroke me again
That's all I need! (purr).

[English translation by D W Solomons of Je veux sortir by Paul Maertens]
