...And the Mouse Police Never Sleeps |
Muscled, black with steel-green eye |
Swishing through the rye grass |
With thoughts of mouse-and-apple pie |
Tail balancing at half-mast |
…And the mouse police never sleeps --- |
Lying in the cherry tree |
Savage bed foot-warmer of purest feline ancestry |
Look out, little furry folk! |
He’s the all-night working cat |
Eats but one in every ten --- |
Leaves the others on the mat |
…And the mouse police never sleeps --- |
Waiting by the cellar door |
Window-box town crier; |
Birth and death registrar |
With claws that rake a furrow red --- |
Licensed to mutilate |
From warm milk on a lazy day |
To dawn patrol on hungry hate |
…No, the mouse police never sleeps --- |
Climbing on the ivy |
Windy roof-top weathercock |
Warm-blooded night on a cold tile |
