I AM THE HOUSE MOUSE - PART 2
They won’t get me with crude device.
I may be mouse but I am wise.
There’s ample food for me to eat
and every day I find a treat.
Jill notices the trap has failed
and this rodent has not been nailed.
She starts to shout at husband Jack
and throws at him a load of flack.
“That trap had not been properly set.
And what’s the use of that fat cat?”
Jack wonders now what can be done.
The rodent man he now must phone.
The man arrives and in some haste.
With mice there is no time to waste,
for they store food then comes the rat
and rat is not afraid of cat.
On this man’s van, lifelike image
of one huge rat looking savage.
On seeing this Jill’s furious
for this informs all the neighbours.
What will they think of Jack and Jill?
They’ll fear house prices go downhill.
Jill tells the man to go away.
So now, in secret, here I stay.
