The mouse in the house
He\'s very smart
We can\'t catch him
From the very start
When I first saw him
I became like jelly
My whole body shook
I felt so wobbly
He ate the cheese
We put in the trap
With grateful thanks
He dropped his crap!
We put good stew
Used Aussie beef
But still we couldn\'t
Catch that sneaky thief
Maybe we should
Switch to a sticky pad
That might make him
Really super mad
I hope the food
Will trap that \'rat\'
If not he\'ll become
Too big for the cat!

Eeek! I saw a mouse running behind the TV cupboard recently. But so far have not been able to get him. Maybe I should borrow the neighbour\'s Fat Cat Wally. But Wally\'s got such a disdainful supercilious look.
