The Lab Rat

Just imagine this
A little rat in a lab did sit
He was the test subject for hypertensive disease
Well the blood pressure cuff was too tight too please

All he could think of all day 
Was how he could get away
Knowing that very soon 
The cuff would balloon

The more he thought about that cuff
The more his blood pressure would go up
The lab team could not understand 
What could be wrong with this little man(rat)

Then they thought that he needs to play
So they placed him in a swimming tray
Now he was afraid he would drown
So on his face was a terrible frown
