Lyrics:

The sun did not shine
It was too wet to play
So we sat in the house
All that cold, cold, wet day

I sat there with Sally
We sat there, we two
And I said 'How I wish
We had something to do!'

Too wet to go out
And too cold to play ball
So we sat in the house
We did nothing at all

So all we could do was to
Sit!
Sit!
Sit!
Sit!
And we did not like it
Not one little bit

*BUMP*

And then
Something went bump!
How that bump made us jump!

We looked!
Then we saw him step in on the mat!
We looked!
And we saw him!
The Cat in the Hat!
And he said to us
'Why do you sit there like that?'

'I know it is wet
And the sun is not sunny
But we can have
Lots of good fun that is funny!'

'I know some good games we could play,'
Said the cat
'I know some new tricks,'
Said the Cat in the Hat
'A lot of good tricks
I will show them to you
Your mother
Will not mind at all if I do.'

Then Sally and I
Did not know what to say
Our mother was out of the house
For the day

But our fish said, 'No! No!
Make that cat go away!
Tell that Cat in the Hat
You do NOT want to play
You should not be here
You should not be about
You should not be here
When your mother is out!'

'Now! Now! Have no fear
Have no fear!' said the cat
'My tricks are not bad,'
Said the Cat in the Hat
'Why, we can have
Lots of good fun, if you wish
With a game that I call
UP-UP-UP with a fish!'

'Put me down!' said the fish
'This is no fun at all!
Put me down!' said the fish
'I do NOT wish to fall!'

'Have no fear!' said the cat
'I will not let you fall
I will hold you up high
As I stand on a ball
With a book in one hand!
And a cup on my hat!
But that is not ALL I can do!'
Said the cat...

'Look at me!
Look at me now!' said the cat
'With a cup and a cake
On the top of my hat!
I can hold TWO books!
I can hold up the fish!
And a little toy ship!
And some milk on a dish!
And look!
I can hop up and down on the ball!
But that is not all!
Oh, no
That is not all...

'Look at me!
Look at me!
Look at me NOW!
It is fun to have fun

From up there on the ball
And Sally and I
We saw ALL the things fall!

And our fish came down, too
He fell into a pot!
He said, 'Do I like this?
Oh, no! I do not
This is not a good game,'
Said out fish as he lit
'No, I do not like it
Not one little bit!'

'Now look what you did!'
Said the fish to the cat
'Now look at this house!
