"Once again, the phantom is abroad." "Trapped in the lonely tower  the girl can hear its mocking laughter echo louder up the vaulted staircase." "Then a claw-like hand falls heavily upon the latch." "Slowly, the door creaks open." "A ghostly form drifts through the blackness of the chamber." "The helpless girl feels her hair stand on end." "Icy chills race down her spine." "Her heart leaps into her throat." "Closer...." "And that, my dear children concludes this evening's witching hour." "And you do believe in ghosts don't you?" "Hello?" "Hello, this is the operator." "Will you please get off the line?" "That sounds like a burglar prowling around in that parlor." "If you' re looking for trouble, Mr. Burglar here I come!" "Tom, you no-good cat!" "Attacking from the rear, eh?" "Well, take this!" "And this!" "Get out of here, you good-for-nothing, moss-eating mousetrap!" "Milk?" "This is the story of a waltzing mouse." "His name was Johann and he lived in Vienna in the home of Johann Strauss." "Each day, as this famous musician played little Johann couldn't resist  waltzing to the beautiful music." "And each day, watching and waiting  was the cat." "And every day, he would try to catch him." "But he would fail." "However, this didn't discourage the cat because he knew that each day, when the master played  the mouse would waltz." "And the cat would try again and again and again." "One day, the master went away on a journey." "This left the cat in a serious predicament." "He knew that if there were no music  the mouse wouldn't waltz!" "Why couldn't he, the cat, learn to play?" "Poor little Johann." "He was under the spell of the beautiful music." "But luckily for him at that moment, the servants wondered who was playing." "Amazing!" "A cat that could play and a mouse that could dance?" "The maid told the butcher boy." "The butcher boy told the crowd at the square." "Then, one of the palace guards overheard." "A cat that could play?" "A mouse that could waltz?" "Good heavens!" "The emperor couldn't believe his ears." "So they were commanded to perform at the palace at once." "Wonderful!" "Sensational!" "And they were very happy as long as the cat played and the mouse danced." "But when the cat stopped playing it was the same old story!" "Well, here we are again the first of the month and bills, bills, bills!" "Something's got to be done to cut down expenses." "Yes, dear." "But if you look you won't find any of my bills in there." "Well, there're certainly none of mine in here." "Listen to this:" ""Dog food, cat food, dog food, cat food"...." "Well, you had to have a dog." "Yeah, and you had to have a cat." "Okay, then, let's get rid of one of them." "That's a good idea." "Let's get rid of one." "They eat too much!" "Well, it's very simple." "We'll get rid of the cat." "Oh, no, you don't!" "We'll get rid of the dog." "At least Tom keeps me company." "Now wait a minute!" "You've heard of man's best friend." "That's my Spike." "Down, boy!" "Down!" "Down, Spike!" "Down, boy!" "Down, down!" "Well, at least Tom is some use around the place." "So what?" "Take a look in the kitchen." "Well, there's one thing a cat does a dog can't do." "Yeah?" "And what can a cat do that a dog can't do?" "Catch a mouse!" "Oh, yeah?" "I'll make a deal the one that catches the mouse can stay." "Go get him, Spike!" "That does it, boys." "Start packing!" "Why didn't we think of this before?" "If we must have a pet, let's make it a mouse." "They don't eat very much." "Are you packed yet?" "All right, then." "Take what belongs to you and get out!" "Hey!" "Put that back!" "Hey, you two!" "Come back here!" "That's my dream house!" "Wait a minute, pussycat!" "Ever since I was a pup I've wanted a little place of my own." "And I still want it." "But if one more thing happens to my little dream house there's going to be murder!" "Timber!" "You are a bad, bad, bad, naughty little baby running away from your mama like that!" "Now you come out of there or I will get my hairbrush and spank you right on your little dy-dee." "Like I always say:" ""If it ain't the work, it's the worry."" "Now, you get right back in your little bed." "And now it's time for your dinner." "And here it is." "Now, I am going downtown and buying me a new girdle." "You stay right in your little bed, or I will spank you again and...." "Goodbye!" "Mama!" "Baby!" "You is a bad kitty cat for getting out of bed." "Now you get right back in." "If you get out one more time, I'll hold your little nose and I will pour castor oil in your mouth." "And it will taste awful bad." "And that ain't good." "When the wind blows The cradle will rock" "Rock-you-a-bye?" "Whoops a daisy!" "Whoops a daisy!" "He fell in the fishbowl." "Anesthetic!" "Diaper!" "Diaper!" "Powder!" "Powder!" "Oil!" "Oil!" "Safety pin!" "Safety pin!" "Forceps!" "Forceps!" "Rubber pants!" "Rubber pants!" "Hey, look!" "I'm dancing!" "I'm dancing!" "Baby!" "This is the last straw, what is breaking my back as soon as it is turned." "You are a bad baby so now you have to take castor oil!" "Now come on open up!" "Come on!" "What's cooking, Toots?" "Boy, are you corny." "You act like a square at the fair a goon from Saskatoon." "You come on like a broken arm." "You're a sad apple, a longhair, a cornhusker." "In other words, you don't send me." "So bail out, brother!" "Get lost!" "And here's your rat, cat." "Boy, are you corny!" "How many times have you been told that?" "How many girls have said:" ""No, Horace, I can only be a sister to you. "" "Get your boots laced, buddy." "Get hep to the jive." "Step in and see Smiling Sam, the zoot suit man." "Step out with a zoot suit for the great shape and a re-pleat." "Wear an ankle-length jacket with 3-foot shoulders pants that begin at the chin zoom to a 54-inch knee  then fade softly to a 3-inch victory cuff." "Get hep!" "Get one!" "Get lost in a new zoot suit!" "Jackson!" "What's jumping, chick?" "You' re really a sharp character a mellow little fellow." "And now you' re calling the job!" "You' re on the right side, you alligator, you!" "Slip me some skin, my friend!" "Well, all reet, well, all root, well, all right!" "Let's take a little ride to jive." "Do you hear me?" "Latch on, Jackson!" "We're off!" "I love you." "When I'm with you, I'm what you call "a hip cat."" "I'm hip to the jive." "I'm in the groove, darling." "Now you're really sending me, Jackson!" "You set my soul on fire." "It is not just a little spark it is a flame!" "A big roaring flame!" "I can feel it now." "It is burning burning burning!" "Say, something is burning around here!" "Jasper!" "Jasper!" "That no-good cat!" "Just a minute, you good-for-nothing, cheap fur coat!" "Now would you just look?" "Just look at that mess you made!" "Now understand this if you break one more thing you are going out!" "O-U-T." "Out!" "That's clear, isn't it?" "One more breaking and you're going out!" "Now get out of my sight before I get mad!" "One more breaking and that cat is going out of here." "Jasper!" "Jasper!" "Man, you are practically out now!" "And when I say "out," Jasper, I mean out!" "O-U-T." "Out!" "Thomas?" "Thomas!" "If that cat's been in that kitchen...!" "Thomas, if you've been in that icebox start praying!" "Thomas!" "Thomas!" "Get in here, Thomas, and get this mouse!" "Goodness!" "This is no place for a lady!" "Thomas?" "Thomas!" "Man, that mouse sure did get demobilized." "Thomas, get in here, tiger man and get yourself a nice big bowl of delicious cream." "Thomas!" "Why, you two-timing, double-crossing no-good cheating cat!" "Get out!" "Get!" "Go, you no good-for-nothing, home-eating mousetrap!" "Get out!" "Now!" "My goodness!" "What's going on in here?" "Why, you overstuffed Pekingese dog, you!" "What are you doing, wrecking up the house?" "Get out of here, you pug-nosed, old messing good-for-nothing!" "You know darn well you are not allowed in this house!" "Ever!" "Just a minute, I'm coming!" "I'm coming, I'm coming!" "Well, how do you do now?" "Why, of course I'll take care of her." "My goodness!" "She's no trouble at all." "Are you, honey?" "Now you just take your time." "Goodbye." "Now, you just sit right over here on the couch and make yourself right at home." "Goodness!" "You are the cutest thing!"
