| My name is Thomas! Hear me ROAR! |
| (From my hiding place behind the door.)
|
|
I'd like to chase some Wildebeest,
|
| But with just three teeth it's hard to feast, |
| So I'll settle down here for a snooze... |
| Or there... no, here... it's hard to choose! |
| When you're such a little cat,
|
| Life's all complex choice like that. |
| |
| There is no other cat like me:
|
|
In "Cute" I got a PHd.
|
| With big round eyes and heavy breathing |
| At the first sound of plates I'm leaving... |
| And don't you DARE come near to me
|
| Rattling EVIL cutlery... |
| The price you'll pay is very dear |
| At four A.M. with paw in ear. |
| Just when it looks safe to relax
|
| I'll exact backdated cuddle tax. |
| |
| If I could climb, I'll have you know, |
| I'd probably get vertigo. |
| It's a big, bad world beyond the fence |
| So to stay at home makes much more sense. |
| The outside world is full of scares |
| Lions! Tigers! Demons! Bears! |
| Evil Dunnocks! Starling thugs! |
| Violent squirrels!Creepy
slugs! |
| They really are all out to get me, |
| So I'll just stay here... if you'll let me? |
|
