I heard a squeak beneath my seat I must protect my trunk I’d give that squeaker such a clump If I were grown and drunk I heard a squeak beneath my seat It gave me such a scare Those tiny squeakers make me meek Is there one under there I heard a squeak beneath my seat I quickly raised my feet I did not dare to take a peek Or beat a quick retreat I heard a squeak beneath my seat It’s messing with my brain Every time I move a bit It seems to squeak again I heard a squeak beneath my seat And now I need my dad He rushed out when he heard the squeak The squeaking made him mad I heard a squeak beneath my seat And now it’s squeaking faster My seat moved when I moved my feet For each leg has a caster I heard a squeak beneath my seat It made my dad’s blood boil But now he’s back and in his trunk Is lubricating oil

Except perhaps, an annoying pipsqueak, Tom. Yes, I sometimes have to call my internet provider. Terry

(chuckling) This is really cute, Terry. I was really beginning to wonder what was making that squeak. I'm so glad a little oil took care of it.

Oops, I forgot to click on nursery rhyme. Hope you weren’t expecting vampire rats from hell. ;-). Thanks Milt. Terry
