Three Blind Mice

See how they run? 
So eager to bring home the bacon, they ended up in the pan,
Stole from Jack Horner and left traces of Spam...
They ran after the Farmers wife, they ran after Sam,
The young lil rats were out on a lam!
They frightened ole Horton, who fell on a Who, 
For three lil mice, that's a Toottin Choo Choo!
They tickled the back of a Sly Cunning Fox,
And even nibbled on the ear of a wooden toy horse!
They were cornered by Soldiers all Tin in a box,
The furry grey creatures were Blue as an Ox!
They scurried, they chewed, put holes in a Shoe,
They even flew up the chimney- like Santa would do.
Then along came a CAT- With a Cheshire Smile,
and with him came along a Wiley Cayote.
A Daffy ole Duck thought the whole gang was Looney,
and offered a Dud named Fudd to go shooting!
They put holes in the ceiling, they put holes in the floor,
Till some Deputy Dawg said no shooting me boy!
The three Little Rascals were so full of themselves, 
If the farmer had caught them, it would have been Hell!
Yes they bumped into walls, they bumped into my verse,
I dont know how- it could have been worse.
Those Three lil Blind Mice now tired, still free,
All laughed and said "You couldn't catch me!"
But the Farmers wife,  she had a plan, and called in the Butcher,
and Candlestick Man. Along came the Baker with his pots and his pans,
A Cat 'n a Fiddle, with music so grande! A Puss and her Boots, with a Dish and a Spoon,
All sang in the moonlight, All sang this sad tune-
Three Blind mice- Three Blind mice-
See how they run- see how they run,
Have you ever seen such a sight in your life!
They will cut of your tail with a butcher's knife,
You better get your stories right!
Three Blind Mice...

  And the little one said: "Goodnight!"
