The lyrics to Asha Bhosle and Kishore Kumar's song "C A T Cat Mane Billi" is a playful ode to animals with catchy rhyming words. The song starts with the repeated phrase "C a t cat cat" and "r a t rat rat," which in Hindi means cat and rat, respectively. The singer questions what difference it makes if the heart is in the paws of a cat or the claws of a rat. The lyrics continue with "mad mad mad" referring to someone who is crazy, and "b o y boy boy" indicating a boy or a young man. The repeated words are intended for playful effect, creating a fun, light-hearted mood.
The lyrics follow with other animals such as a "g o a t goat goat" or a "l i o n lion lion" and "c r o w crow crow" or a "n o s e nose nose." The lyrics suggest that it doesn't matter what animal one may be, or whether they are good or bad. The heart is pure, and that's what matters, as the song suggests with the recurring line, "Dil hai tere panje mein toh kya hua," which means, "What difference does it make if the heart is in your paws?"
The song finishes with a message that the world will say what it wants to say, and people should not be afraid and be themselves. The lyrics convey a positive message that everyone is unique and special, no matter what they may be, and they should embrace their individuality.

The comedy of Kishore Kumar & Nutan. During the 1950s Kishore Kumar was establishing himself as an actor,director & playback singer. The man was simply an entertainer from start to finish!!

Kishore elevates the song to different level no matter what genre he has to sing in, no boundaries can bound him, no limits can be set, nothing is impossible. What a times invaluable gift to music lover he had been. Very untimely death..
