Lyrics
Mariah: Macavity's a mystery cat! He's called the Hidden Paw!

For he's a master crimanal who can defy the law!

He's the baffelment of Scottland Yard, the Flying Squad's depair!

For when they reach the scene of crime, Macavity's not there!


 * sneaky music break*

Macavity, Macavity! There's no one like Macavity!

He's broken every human law! He breaks the law of gravity!

His powers of levitation would make a fakir stare!

And when you reach the scene of crime, Macavity's not there!

You may seek him in a basement! You may look up in the air!

But I tell you once and once again; Macavity's not there!

Barney's Friends: Macavity's a ginger cat! He's very tall and thin!

You would know him if you saw him! For his eyes are sunken in!

His brow was deeply lined in thought! His head is highly domed!

His coat was dusty from neglect! His whiskers are uncombed!

Mariah: He sways his head from side to side with movements like a snake!

And when you think he's half asleep, HE'S ALWAYS WIDE AWAKE!

Macavity, Macavity! There's no one like Macavity!

He's a fiend and feline shape! A monster of depravity!

You may meet him in a by-street! You may see him in the square!

But when a crime's discovered, then Macavity's not there!

Barney: He's outwardly respectable!

I know! He cheats at cards!

Mariah: And his footprints are not found in any files

Of Scott...land Yard's!

Barney: And when the larder's looted!

Mariah: Or the jewel case is rifled!

Barney: Or when the milk is missing!

Mariah: Or another peke's been sifled!

Barney: Or the greenhouse glass is broken! *spoken while accidentally drops the greenhouse glass and it breaks* Whoops! *sung* And the trellis past repair!

Mariah and Barney: There's the wonder of the thing; Macavity's not there!

Macavity, Macavity! There's no one like Macavity!

There ever was a cat on such deceitfulness and suavity!

He always has an alibi, and one or two to spare!

Whatever time the deed took place, Macavity wasn't there!

And they say that all the cats whose wicked deeds are widely known!

Barney: I might mention Mungojerrie!

Mariah: I might mention Griddlebone!

Mariah and Barney: Are nothing more than agents for the cat who all the time!

Just controls the operations; The Napoleon of Crime!

Everyone: Macavity, Macavity! There's no one like Macavity!

He's a fiend and feline shape! A monster of depravity!

You may meet him in a by-street! You may see him in the square!

But when a crime's discovered, then

Macavity! (x4)


 * instrument break*

When a crime's discoverd, then Macavity's not there!
