LOVING COUPLE:
I can't see you
but I know you're there.
Got to get beside you
'cos it's really cold out here.
Come up close to me
you'll soon be warm,
Hold me tightly
like we're sheltering from a storm.

MOUSE:
Think I might
go out for a stroll
Into the night
and out of this hole.
Maybe find me a meal.
Walking along
this new shag pile
Presents a problem
all the while.
Nearly the door.

Suddenly he bumps into wood,
the door is closed
A voice from the bed,
he'll be exposed.
Which way to run,
must make for the hole.
But the light's been turned on,
he's blind as a mole in coal.

MOUSE:
Now I can see
they're coming at me,
They've blocked off my door,
I haven't a chance in hell.

COUPLE:
Come on baby
let the poor thing go.
I'm not sleeping
with that thing around here, no.
Alright then,
I'll fetch a box from below,
Guard him carefully,
they're very quick, you know.

MOUSE:
The door's been opened,
my chance of escape.
Must run out quick,
better sorry than late.
I'm out on the stairs.
They won't catch me now,
I've the run of the house now
I'll make it downstairs
and into the breadbin.
That would be nice.

Suddenly he bumps into fur,
that's very unwise
A cat is much quicker
than men and their eyes.
The chase that ensues
can have only one end,
Unless outside help
steps in for our friend in need.
But now the cat
comes in for the kill,
His paw is raised,
soon blood will spill.
yes it will.

CAT:
Hard luck mouse,
this is the end of your road.
The signpost says 'Inside me',
let me bear your heavy load.
But it's not to be,
that final pounce
Knocks a jar
upon his head, and lays him out.

But its all
in a mouse's night
To take on all
those who would fight

CAT'S STORY:
There I was
with my back to the wall,
Then comes this monster mouse,
he's ten feet tall,
With teeth and claws to match
It only took one blow
