Well, I woke up this mornin", sun shinin" in my eye
Thought I heard a rooster crowin", "Hey, there, you little guy!"
But it was just my neighbor"s cat, singin" "Bossa Nova Baby"
I guess he"s got a taste for music, that crazy, furry tabby
(Chorus)
Bossa Nova Baby, you"re the cutest thing I"ve seen
With your little paws tappin" and your whiskers movin" keen
You"re a furry, feline dancer, you"re a real Bossa Nova queen
But please, don"t sing so loud, I"m tryin" to have my coffee, you know what I mean?
(Verse 2)
My dog, he"s lookin" jealous, sittin" there with a frown
He"s like, "Hey, why does the cat get all the attention in town?"
I told him, "Buddy, it"s Bossa Nova, it"s the new hip thing"
He just rolled his eyes and sighed, "That"s just a cat singin", man, it"s not even a real song."
(Chorus)
Bossa Nova Baby, you"re the cutest thing I"ve seen
With your little paws tappin" and your whiskers movin" keen
You"re a furry, feline dancer, you"re a real Bossa Nova queen
But please, don"t sing so loud, I"m tryin" to have my coffee, you know what I mean?
(Bridge)
I think I"ll join the cat, he"s got the moves, I gotta admit
Maybe I"ll learn some Bossa Nova, and get my groove on, just a bit
I"ll put on my best Hawaiian shirt, and dance with the cat all day
We"ll be the Bossa Nova duo, the coolest cats in the USA!
(Chorus)
Bossa Nova Baby, you"re the cutest thing I"ve seen
With your little paws tappin" and your whiskers movin" keen
You"re a furry, feline dancer, you"re a real Bossa Nova queen
But please, don"t sing so loud, I"m tryin" to have my coffee, you know what I mean?
(Outro)
Bossa Nova Baby, you"re the coolest cat I know
You"re the king of the jungle, the Bossa Nova show!
Let"s dance, let"s sing, let"s have some fun
Bossa Nova Baby, you"re number one!
