The cat, his eyes half-closed before the hole
Awaits his pray like a mafioso - o - o
That's the cat.

The rat, his eyes half-closed inside that hole
Knows that he's there, that cat mafioso - o - o
He'll never go.

As for me, 1 simply sit and watch the two,
It's just another scene to view,
I stay aloof.

But if, I should provide an other rat,
Would soon forget our Mister Cat,
Understand, my Lola ?

For you, are playing very hard to get,
I could get bored with all of that,
Lola, little rat !

Lola, if you won't play our little game,
All little rat are much the same
To me, my Lola ... Lola ... Lola ...
