Lyrics
We are Siameeiz if you pleeiz
We are Siameeiz if you don’t please
We are former residents of Siam
There are no finer cats than we am
We are Siamese with very dainty claws
Please observing paws containing dainty claws
Now we lookin’ over our new domicile
If we like we stay for maybe quite a while
