when the cat sleeps


When the cat sleeps
The rat will begin to roam freely
In the house taking the free food and drinks
The slow rock of its time

Molly the pet dog looks
The eyes of anger the claws out in the open
The sound of barking under the table
Waiting for her opportunity to strike

The rat running in and out
The world in the house belonging to it
As the cat sleeps in its dream
Molly can't do a thing

As the clock strikes 12 midnight
The rat looks up and listens
The little bird comes out to hoot
You better go home!”

The rat runs down to the floor
Thinking of the danger in the corner
One eye to the door
Molly appears with her paw

The rat sees it too late
The strike on the bowling alley
The tenpin balls rolling a strike
The rat lays still falling deeply into the hole

The cat strolls out to investigate
Hey what's that noise?
Is there anything wrong?”
Molly just hides under the table

When advantages take for too long
The road of potholes never see
One wrong foot the falling of shame
The misery of life of lame
