the little rats


The little rats in the coalition
They tend to steal or bite a little
Every morning every night
Till the big cat smells the rat

The big cat needs his sleep
He doesn't need the constant whispering
So one day he relented to the little rats
Give them the crumbs of cheese

The little rats run for joy
Look at it, boys!
A plate full of cheese crumbs
Aren't we clever with our pursuit?”

The dogs outside the hole
It is nothing to shout about
You should see what the big cat has
This you wanted to run for joy?”

The little rats whisper
What did the dogs say?
Did we miss something?”
You mustn't beg!”
