third crash [bad word] the celebration, and this
 time the villainous Macavity appears! Two of his henchman 
 invade the proceedings and kidnap Old Deuteronomy! Two 
 felines familiar with Macavity, Demeter (a frightened 
 kitten who had been previously abducted by Macavity) and 
 the older and more sensual Bombalurina (a goodtime girl 
 who gets along with everyone) sing what they know of 
 Macavity

 SOLO: 
 Macavity! 
 
 Macavity's a mystery cat, he's called the hidden paw 
 For he's a master criminal who can defy the law 
 He's the bafflement of Scotland Yard, the Flying Squad's despair 
 For when they reach the scene of crime Macavity's not there! 
 
 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 the basement, you may look up in the air 
 But I tell you once and once again Macavity's not there! 
 
 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 is deeply lined in thought, his head is highly domed 
 His coat is dusty from neglect, his whiskers are [bad word] 
 
 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 in 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! 
 
 He's outwardly respectable, I know he cheats at cards 
 And his footprints are not found in any files of Scotland Yard's 
 And when the larder's looted or the jewel case is rifled 
 Or when the milk is missing or another peke's been stifled 
 Or the greenhouse glass is broken and the trellis past repair 
 There's the wonder of the thing Macavity's not there! 
 
 Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like Macavity 
 There never was a cat of such deceitfulness and suavity 
 He always has an alibi and one or two to spare 
 What ever time the deed took place Macavity wasn't there! 
 
 And they say that all the cats whose wicked deeds are widely known 
 I might mention Mungojerrie, I might mention Griddlebone 
 Are nothing more than agents for the cat who all the time 
 Just controls the operations: the Napoleon of crime! 
 
 Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like Macavity 
 He's a fiend in 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 
 
 Macavity, Macavity, Macavity 
 When a crime's discovered then Macavity's not there! 
 Macavity's not there! 
 
 Macavity returns, disguised as Old Deuteronomy, but he 
 is revealed, and he battles with Munkustrap and the other 
 male cats. Tired and almost defeated, Macavity rigs an 
 electrical explosion that puts out all the lights, leaving 
 the Jellicles in the dark.
 
 ALL: 
 We have to find Old Deuteronomy
