So What Else is New?
Look, Katz
Don't be a sap
She'll walk all over you
She'll have you altered!
Yeah, stop being so catty
I know what I'm doing!
No you don't
Remember what you said?
Do you remember?
Once you vowed you'd never fall again
Disallowed braving that squall again
Now you're cowed
Giving your all again
Dumb!
True
So what else is new?
Once you'd shout, "Won't be depressed again!"
Think about going through est again
Now you're out beating your chest again
Trite!
True
So what else is new
Wise old Ralph Waldo Emerson finds
That a foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds
Right on, Waldo
Once you swore you'd never reach again
Taste the floor, slurring your speech again
Now once more, into the breach again
True?
Well, so what?
So what else
So what else is new?
Now hold it, Katz
Remember that wife of yours? A regular pussycat
Thick, silky orange hair
A soft howling voice
Long, sexy whiskers
You were crazy about her
So what did she do?
She went into heat and fell for a peeping Tom!
So what else is new?
Sing the song Ira Gershwin designed
Where the moral was Jenny should not have made up her mind
Aye, aye, Ira
Once you quit, won't be enrapt again
Stay well zipped, not to be zapped again
Now you're tripped, totally trapped again
True
Well, so what?
Well, so what?
So what else
So what else
So what else is new?
So what else is new?
So what else is new?
On the other hand, Katz
Watch yourself
This could be a major Kat-tastrophe!
Don't be a sap
She'll walk all over you
She'll have you altered!
Yeah, stop being so catty
I know what I'm doing!
No you don't
Remember what you said?
Do you remember?
Once you vowed you'd never fall again
Disallowed braving that squall again
Now you're cowed
Giving your all again
Dumb!
True
So what else is new?
Once you'd shout, "Won't be depressed again!"
Think about going through est again
Now you're out beating your chest again
Trite!
True

So what else is new?
So what else is new?
On the other hand, Katz
Watch yourself
This could be a major Kat-tastrophe!
