Silver-- we meet again, like that, also gnomad's three pawcent!
GtD, what a delicious thought, run over by American Express! Time was when I knew the feeling.
Thought of this just as I went to bed last night, ruined my sleep for a while so I need to get it off my chest. I think the original group were called something likr 'The Rooftop Singers', and also seem to remember Gus Cannon (of Jug-Band fame) was involved somewhere.

^^ I've got an old Tom-cat,
And when he goes out,
All the other cats in the neighbourhood,
They begin to shout.

CH
Here comes the Visa tom,
Struttin' right on down,
He's got a brand new credit card
And he's goin' to paint the town!

My ole cat Messiah,
Got a credit limit thats higher
Than me or you, it must be true
He's a financial high flier,

Ch

Visa tom's alright,
He's a bundle of dynamite,
He can buy any pussy in this doggone town
And he's howling every night

Ch

Visa tom's on a spree,
Yes, he's spendin' more than me
Then the Bank caught on to where the money had gone,
And cut off his facility (OUCH)

Ch

Tom don't go out no more,
Rarely ever goes through the door,
He just plays soft ball up and down the hall,
'Cos his hard ball don't work no more.

Last Chorus
No more the Visa-tom,
Chasing all them pussies round
He stays in the house quiet as a mouse,
Since the bank turned his damper down!

As Bloodnok used to say 'By Jove, I needed that!
