Twas two weeks before Christmas
And all through the house
many creatures were stirring,
'specially me, I'm the mouse
My hide outs all found out
by Ritzy the cat
I used to hide well
neath the chimney brick there,
but the black and white terror
saw my tail wiggle, I was snared!
Off, Ritzy, off, off, you big furry beast!
Either kill me or eat me,
cat play is ever so cruel
My furs all a drippin
from your kitty cat drool.
Away I must scurry, and wish with my might
that I live to see Christmas
And Ritz gets in gifts
only FAKE mice tonight!
