Answer: Mungojerrie and Rumpelteazer

'Mungojerrie and Rumpelteazer, we're a notorious couple of cats.
As knock about clowns and quick change comedians
Tightrope walkers and acrobats.
We have an extensive reputation
We make our home in Victoria Grove
This is merely our centre of operation
For we are incurably given to rove!

When the family assembles for Sunday dinner
Their minds made up that they won't get thinner
On Argentine joint, potatoes and greens
The cook'll appear from behind the scenes
And say in a voice that is broken with sorrow
"I'm afraid you must wait and have dinner tomorrow
The joint has gone from the oven like that"
And the family'll say, "it's that 'orrible cat!
Was it Mungojerrie or Rumpelteazer?"
And most of the time, they leave it at that!

Have a wonderful way of working together
And some of the time, you would say it was luck
And some of the time, you would say it was weather

We'd go through the house like a hurricane
And, no sober person can take his oath
Was it Mungojerrie or Rumpleteazer?
Or could you have sworn that, it might have been both?

And when you hear a dining room smash,
Or up from the pantry, comes a loud crash
Or down from the library comes a loud ping!
From a vase that is commonly said to be Mingggggggg'
Then the family'll say, "now which was which cat?"

"It was...Mungojerrie!
Aaaaand! Rumpelteazer!"
And there's nothing at all, to be done about that!'

I know, there are more words in other productions, those words are from the DVD.
