How the cat purred and how the witch grinned,

Lyrics:

\n

I am a cat, as lean as can be.
\nIs there room on the broom for a cat like me?
\nYes, yes, yes!

\n

I am a dog, as keen as can be.
\nIs there room on the broom for a dog like me?
\nYes, yes, yes!

\n

I am a bird, as green as can be. 
\nIs there room on the broom for a bird like me?
\nYes, yes, yes!

\n

I am a frog, as clean as can be. 
\nIs there room on the broom for a frog like me?
\nYes, yes . . .
\nNo!

\n

I am a dragon, as mean as can be. 
\nIs there room on the broom for a dragon like me?
\nNO, NO, NO!
\nOFF YOU GO!
\nHo ho ho ho ho ho HO!
