The Planet of the Mice

The Planet of the Mice By Elton Camp Imagine if mice should gain the upper hand It’d be a world people wouldn’t think grand Cheese would become the main food around Only to bait mantraps would pizza be found Lady mice would jump up onto a chair And say, “Eeek, I see a person right there.” Biped poison would be sold in the store Where mouse killer had been before Mice for the Ethical Treatment of Man To eliminate glue traps does all that it can And the device that moves the cursor about Would be called a “human” without a doubt Let’s hope we’re the most fit and will survive And humankind, not mousedom, will thrive

Thanks. It is a bit dangerous to write something that assumes knowledge of an inane series of movies, but I decided to take the chance. Elton
