There was a tiny mouse who lived in a tiny house full of drafts and doubts, and incredible things like a jack-in-the-box who popped every Sunday at five o'clock and a clown who wore a frown that was deafening He ate off a silver spoon in a golden room but platinum plates and diamond goblets weren't enough "I am bored," said he "I think I will go to sea "where I'll be drinking grog and sniffing occasional snuff" So he stowed away that very day but the motion of the ocean made him sick He went looking for a loo, but the best that he could do was the bathroom of the captain of the ship Oh, the bathroom of the captain of the ship There was a small still life of the captains wife and what he saw there nearly brought the mouse to tears A calico coat and head and the inscription read "To the captain of my heart, from Kitty Dear" The mouse began to cry "Oh what a fool am I "to come so far and then be served up on a plate "What an awful meal I'll be! "Most of all, to me!! "So it's overboard I'll go and make my escape" He caught a flounder for a sail Made rudder of his tail and he swam as hard as he could swim for land where he dried his whiskers off and coughed and coughed and coughed and spat out seven oysters and a clam Oh, he spat out seven oysters and a clam He married a mouseketeer Had children who loved to hear about the adventures of the tiny stowaway but it made their noses itch and their whiskers twitch to think how close he'd come to being the soup of the day The moral of the tale is think before you sail and always keep your paws and whiskers neat and if you're dining on a ship just be sure the room's well lit so you know what's in the bowl before you eat Always know what's in the bowl before you eat!Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
