SONG: The Battle of the Pekes and the Pollicles
ARTIST: Andrew Lloyd Webber
From the musical, Cats
Jellicle cats meet once a year
on the night we make the Jellicle choice and
now that the Jellicle leader is here
Jellicle cats can all rejoice
A - E/G# - Bm - E -
A
D - D/E
Of the awful battle of the pekes and the pollicles
Together with some account Of the participation of the pugs and the poms
And the intervention of the great Rumpus Cat!!!
Fm
Fm
The pekes and the pollicles everyone knows
Fm C7/F - Fm -
Are a proud and implacable passionate foes
C7/F Fm -
It is always the same whereever one goes
Fm
And the Pugs and the Poms although most people say
Fm C7/F - Fm -
That they do not like fighting yet once in a way
C7/F - C7/F Fm
They will now and again join into the fray and they
Bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark
E/B - Fm/C - C7 - Fm -
Until you could hear them all over the park and they
Bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark
E/B - Fm/C - C7 - Fm -
Until you could hear them all over the park
Fm Fm
Now on the occassion of which I shall speak
Fm C7/F - Fm -
Almost nothing had happened for nearly a week
C7/F - C7/F - C7/F - Fm -
And that's a long time for a Pol or a Peke
Fm Fm
The big police dog was away from his beat
Fm C7/F - Fm -
I don't know the reason but most people think
C7/F - C7/F - C7/F - Fm -
He slipped into the Wellington Arms for a drink
A#m - D# - G# - C# -
And no one at all was about on the street
F# - C7 - Fm
When a Peke and a Pollicle happened to meet
A#m - D# - G# - C# -
They did not advance or exactly retreat
F# - C7
But they glared at each other and scraped their hind feet and they started to
Bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark
E/B - Fm/C - C7 - Fm -
Until you could hear them all over the park
Fm Fm
Now the Peke although people may say what they please
Fm C7/F - Fm -
Is no British dog but a heathen Chinese
Fm Fm
And so all the Pekes when they heard the uproar
Fm C7/F - Fm -
Some came to the window, some came to the door
C7/F Fm -
There were surely a dozen more likely a score
A#m - D# - G# - C# -
And together they started to grumble and wheeze
F# - C7 - Fm
In their huffery-snuffery heathen Chinese
A#m - D# - G# - C# -
But a terrible din is what Pollicles like
F# - C# - Fm
For your Pollicle dog is a dour Yorkshire tyke
A# - F7/A#-A#
There are dogs out of every nation
F - C7 - F
the Irish, the Welsh and the Dane:
G# D#
The Russian, the Dutch, the Dalmatian,
A# - A#/D - D# - D#/F -
and even from China and Spain.
A# - F7/A# - A#
The Poodle, the Pom, the Alsatian
F - C7 - F - D# -
And the Mastiff who walks on a chain.
A#/D - F7 - A#
And to those that are frisky and frolical,
A# G#/A#
Let my meaning be perfectly plain:
A# - F7/A# - A#
That my name it is little Tom Pollicle,
A# - G# - A#
and you'd better not do it again!"
Fm
And his braw Scottish cousins are snappers and biters
And every dog-jack of them notable fighters
And so they stepped out with their pipers in order
Playing "When the Blue Bonnets Come Over The Border"

Now when these bold hereos together assembled

The traffic all stopped and the underground trembled

And some of the neighbours were so much afraid

That they started to ring up the Fire Brigade!
A#m - D# - G# - C# -
When suddenly up from a small basement flat
F# - C7 D#--G#
Why who should stalk out but the Great Rumpus Cat!!!!
His eyes were like fireballs fearfully blazing
He gave a great yawn and his jaws were amazing
And when he looked out through the bars of the area
You never saw anything fiercer....
...Or hairier
Fm Fm
And what with a glare of his eyes and his yawning
C/F - F -
The Pekes and the Pollicles quickly took warning
Fm Fm
He looked at the sky and he gave a great leap
Fm C/F - Fm -
And they every last one of them scattered like sheep!
