The Rattle Mouse
Well don't look now but there goes a rattlemouse how can I tell how did he smell
He doesn’t smell and you can't find him just by sniffin'
But you’ll hear him when he's rattlin' round your kitchen
Yep that's a rattlemouse oh that's a rattlemouse I bet that's a rattlemouse
There it is again yep that's a rattlemouse how did I know where did he go
You can't see him when he travels he goes zoom
But you’ll hear him when he’s rattlin' round your room
Yep that’s a rattlemouse oh that's a rattlemouse yep that's a rattlemouse
Did you hear that that was a rattlemouse how did I guess how was he dressed
He was wearin' a little fur coat and a little fur face
And you’ll hear him when he's rattlin' round your place
