Кот Бегемот [Kot Begemot] [English translation]
Кот Бегемот [Kot Begemot] [English translation]
If we could choose our friends
From stories, tales or novels
People would choose magicans and fairies
Or people without any flaws
But I see in my dreams day and night
A strange person with a long moustache and a fluffy tail
Sometimes he drinks stinking kerosene,
Sometimes suddenly he becomes nicer than a movie star
Refrain:
Cat Behemoth is a funny guy and a spendthrift
I need a friend like him
Cat Behemoth calls me to fool around and to have fun with him
Cat Behemoth has no worries
(What a devlish pussy cat you are!)
A little woman named Larisa has tired from worries long ago
I don't care about the count of Monte Cristo,
Sherlock Holmes or Fantomas
I don't need Hamlet and Othello
Behemoth has hundreds of devlish pranks
Go ahead and choose any one of them!
If I ask him he will take me to Paris and to the English Queen's ball
Only Behemoth can save me from my problems
As he purrs his heavenly tunes.
Refrain:
Cat Behemoth is a funny guy and a spendthrift
I need a friend like him
Cat Behemoth calls me to fool around and to have fun with him
Cat Behemoth has no worries
(What a devlish pussy cat you are!)
A little woman named Larisa has tired from worries long ago
