Skimbleshanks


Now I'm "in" Skimbleshanks. What's Skimbleshanks?
Skimbleshanks is the railway cat in CATS.
His song is very cheerful and happy song, the most musical-like song!
I was surprised when I read the lyrics of this song.
It is written in wonderful rhyme!
For example,
There's a whisper down the line
At eleven thirty-nine
When the night mail's ready to depart
Saying, 'Skimble, where is Skimble'
'Has he gone to hunt the timble'
'We must find him or the train can't start!'
I start to feel that I want to know T.S. Eliot more.
Now I only know that he wrote "The Waste Land".
And I found that this song is on the list of karaoke (DAM).
Maybe this is Japanese version, but I want to sing it next time!
