The Mouse with the Hat
Once upon a time
I saw a gentlemouse with a hat sublime.
The richest mouse I’d ever seen, his hat a present from the queen
He was quite close with the queen he said, now that the king, her husband was dead
I have a secret he whispered with glee
The queen has promised to marry me!
The gorgeous hat he wore around was to be replaced by a crown.
I was so surprised by this tawdry fact, I completely forgot to ask
Was this a mouse queen of which I did not know?
Or had Queen Elizabeth a mousey Beaux?
