Skin the Cat by Jools Holland Lyrics
I got a piano
Got 88 keys
Got ten little fingers
I play what I please
Tie your toes
And hang on to your hat
I'm gonna show you
How to skin that cat
Everybody wants to know
The latest thing
And what they're gonna wear
And what they're gonna sing
I don't know what it is
And I don't know what it's at
The only thing I know
Is how to skin that cat
You should shoot me
From a cannon
And I'd ask for more
Win the grand prix
I'd still be bored
Win a marathon
In 30 seconds flat
But all I wanna do
Is skin that cat
Samson and Delila
What a funny pair
She took a knife
And cut off all his hair
Said hey
What do you think about that
I bet you didn't think
I could skin that cat
Got 88 keys
Got ten little fingers
I play what I please
Tie your toes
And hang on to your hat
I'm gonna show you
How to skin that cat
Everybody wants to know
The latest thing
And what they're gonna wear
And what they're gonna sing
I don't know what it is
And I don't know what it's at
The only thing I know
Is how to skin that cat
You should shoot me
From a cannon
And I'd ask for more
Win the grand prix
I'd still be bored
Win a marathon
In 30 seconds flat
But all I wanna do
Is skin that cat
Samson and Delila
What a funny pair
She took a knife
And cut off all his hair
Said hey
What do you think about that
I bet you didn't think
I could skin that cat
