I’m quite a pampered mouse
So, late last night, I left the fields
and crept into your house
I found a handsome gravy boat
It made the perfect bed!
Two teabags served as pillows
where I laid my weary head
Then morning came and I awoke
I thought I’d take the plunge
and wash in this jacuzzi
with a biscuit for a sponge
Yes, bathing in your porcelain
is just my cup of tea
You need to rinse that egg cup though…
…it holds a mouse-sized wee
