The rat sang his parable from the garbage can
The mice listened and sang along
On pews of pots and pan
Ten dead men played a revielle
From the Blue Boy's horn
Little Bo Peep killed her sheep
And lit fire to the corn
The magpie stole the parable
And changed all but one word
The rats and mice joined his flock
Inspired by the message they heard
Ten dead cats and skin a man
A dog can double the score
You can hear it late night
The scratching under the floor
The scratching under the floor
The scratching under the floor
