A COMMERCIAL 

I'd like to make a commercial 
And do it on TVee 
Look up and down, left and right 
T'would be a cinch for me 

I could make it for a cat food 
Or even sandbox stuff 
There's really nothing to it 
I'd just have to smile enough

DOLL CAT 

My mistress says I'm her doll cat 
Next thing'll be bonnet and dress 
Riding bye-bye in a baby buggy 
Oh I'll love that--I do confess 

Little old ladies looking in 
Going cootchy-coo little kitty 
Pretty face and great big eyes 
What a precious itty bitty

MEALS BY PHONE 

I wish that cats had phones 
To place an order for a meal 
So if we want milk at lunch 
Press one now--what a deal 

Press two for a chicken dinner 
Or three for liver if we wish 
Don't press four for the dry stuff 
Press five now for a dish of fish 

If we could really order meals 
Big Fluffo'd be on the phone all day 
Pressing one, two, three, four, five 
He'd think twice if he had to pay
