Rata Rats Rats

Rats rats rats I’m scared of creepy crawly rats Thay have beedy eyes and a long slivering tail And the ones around here are as big as cats. Rats rats rats There’s countless millions everywhere Nesting in your knicker draw And crawling trough your hair Rats rats rats I was staggering home pickled from the pub last night When I saw the whole ground move like a giant carpet It gave me such a fright They can crawl from the sewer into your toilet bowl And bite you on your bum So always check you haven’t one. Rats rats rats Their dirty and have fleas They breed and multiply so fast And they say they spread disease When I'm in my bed at night i get under the covers Holding my pillow tight Just in case one crawls through the window What a fright.. Rats rats rats Their intelligent creatures so they say I’d never hurt a tame one Just keep them rats away. peter dome. Copyright.2015.Dec.

Peter, I enjoyed reading your well written piece. However, I don't particularly like rats and they are all through this write. I loved the humor in this piece. :-) Alexis
