  • "Jellicle Cats come out to-night

    Jellicle Cats come one come all:

    The Jellicle Moon is shining bright -

    Jellicles come to the Jellicle Ball.

    Jellicle Cats are black and white,

    Jellicle Cats are rather small;

    Jellicle Cats are merry and bright,

    And pleasant to hear when they caterwaul.

    Jellicle Cats have cheerful faces,

    Jellicle Cats have bright black eyes;

    They like to practise their airs and graces

    And wait for the Jellicle Moon to rise."

    - T. S. Elliot, 'The Song of the Jellicles'.
