Sherman Brother’s A to Z. O is for O’malley.

I did not realize it when I planned out the songs for this week, that a different animal was being feutured each day. Monday we had a monkey in the title. No Dogs were allowed in yesterday’s post. Today we are featuring Thomas O’Malley Cat form Disney’s 1972 gem, The Aristocats? Any guessed what animals may round out our week?

Thomas O’Malley
I like cheech-a-cheech-chee-roni
Like they make at home
Or a healthy fish with a big backbone
I’m Abraham DeLacey
Giuseppe Casey
Thomas O’Malley
O’Malley the alley cat!
I’ve got that wanderlust
Gotta walk the scene
Gotta kick up highway dust
Feel the grass that’s green
Gotta strut them city streets
Showin’ off my éclat, yeah
Tellin’ my friends of the social elite
Or some cute cat I happen to meet
That I’m Abraham DeLacey
Giuseppe Casey
Thomas O’Malley
O’Malley the alley cat!
Duchess: Why, monsieur, your name seems to cover all of Europe!
O’Malley: Well of course. I’m the only cat of my own kind.
I’m king of the highway
Prince of the boulevard
Duke of the avant-garde
The world is my backyard
So if you’re goin’ my way
That’s the road you wanna seek
Calcutta to Rome or
Home Sweet Home in Paris…
Magnifique, you all!
Toulouse: Oh, boy! An alley cat!
Marie: Shh! Listen.
O’Malley
I only got myself
And this big old world
But I sip that cup of life
With my fingers curled
I don’t worry what road to take
I don’t have to think of that
Whatever I take is the road I make
It’s the road of life make no mistake, for me
Yeah, Abraham DeLacey
Giuseppe Casey
Thomas O’Malley
O’Malley the alley cat
That’s right
And I’m very proud of that
Yeah!
