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 his 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, now he's blind as a mole in coal

 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 to escape
 Must run out quick, better sorry that 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 that 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 our 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 it's 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
