Theme Song
The program is also remembered for its distinctive theme song, written by Winston Sharples and performed by 1950s big band singer Ann Bennett.
The lyrics are as follows:
"Felix the Cat, the wonderful wonderful cat.
Whenever he gets in a fix, he reaches into his bag of tricks.
Felix the Cat, the wonderful wonderful cat.
You'll laugh so hard your sides will ache, your heart will go pitter-pat,
Watching Felix, the wonderful cat."

Famous quotes containing the words theme and/or song:
“Children became an obsessive theme in Victorian culture at the same time that they were being exploited as never before. As the horrors of life multiplied for some children, the image of childhood was increasingly exalted. Children became the last symbols of purity in a world which was seen as increasingly ugly.”
—C. John Sommerville (20th century)
“On a cloud I saw a child,
And he laughing said to me,
“Pipe a song about a Lamb”;
So I piped with merry chear.
“Piper pipe that song again”—
So I piped, he wept to hear.
“Drop thy pipe thy happy pipe
Sing thy songs of happy chear”;
So I sung the same again
While he wept with joy to hear.”
—William Blake (1757–1827)
