What’s New, Pussycat
Performed by Tom Jones
What’s new, pussycat? Whoa Whoa Whoa Oh
What’s new, pussycat? Whoa Whoa Whoa Oh-whoa
Pussycat, Pussycat
I’ve got flowers
And lots of hours
To spend with you
So go and powder your cute little pussycat nose
Pussycat, Pussycat
I love you
Yes, I do
You and your pussycat nose
What’s new, pussycat? Whoa Whoa Whoa Oh
What’s new, pussycat? Whoa Whoa Whoa Oh-whoa
Pussycat, Pussycat
You’re so thrilling
And I’m so willing
To care for you
So go and make up your big little pussycat eyes
Pussycat, Pussycat
I love you
Yes, I do
You and your pussycat eyes
What’s new, pussycat? Whoa Whoa Whoa Oh
What’s new, pussycat? Whoa Whoa Whoa Oh-whoa
Pussycat, Pussycat
You’re delicious
And if my wishes
Can all come true
I’ll soon be kissing your sweet little pussycat lips
Pussycat, Pussycat
I love you
Yes, I do
You and your pussycat lips
(whoa whoa)
You and your pussycat eyes
(whoa whoa)
You and your pussycat nose
