The Cat Wall

Danny McEvoy’s garden wall in Ship Street, Newhaven, is adorned with a large collection of porcelain cats all vying for your attention.  Recently they have been joined by a large mural of Danny’s cat, Stripes, which was created by Bec Dennison as part of Newhaven’s Look Again Supergraphic’s Festival.

Listen to singer/songwriter, and Beatles enthusiast, Danny’s song ‘Cat Wall’, with backing vocals by our very own Galia Pike. While you’re here, see if you can spot the very brave mouse on Danny’s Cat Wall!

Lyrics:

The Hanging gardens are no longer there,

The Colossus of Rhodes is toast

But there’s still a wonder awaiting you all

To photograph on the South Coast

It’s the Cat Wall, the Cat Wall, the Cat Wall

The Cat Wall The Cat wall The Cat wall

If you are bored and have nothing to do

There’s something in Newhaven waiting for you

The Cat Wall

The cat wall

The cat wall

The Great Wall Of China pales into insignificance

Hadrian turns in his grave,

The one in Berlin’s now been put in the bin

Can you find the mouse that is brave?

It’s the Cat Wall, the Cat Wall, the Cat Wall

The Cat Wall The Cat wall The Cat wall

If you are bored and have nothing to do

There’s something in Newhaven waiting for you

The Cat Wall The cat wall The cat wall

Humpty Dumpty had a great fall

But not when he sat on the Cat Wall

Ni-agara Falls-the Grand Canyon et al

In Egypt the pyramids of Giza

They’ll make you awestruck and they’re well worth a look

But baby, this really will please ya.

It’s the Cat Wall, the Cat Wall, the Cat Wall

The Cat Wall The Cat wall The Cat wall

If you are bored and have nothing to do

There’s something in Newhaven waiting for you

The Cat Wall The cat wall The cat wall
