I know all that I speak, but none of what I hear,
so help me to speak words of certainty without fear.
I'm tired of hearing mice squeak unwanted sounds
but I cannot escape it, for they are in all of the towns.
They crawl around humans and corrupt humble lives.
And when I see them, my heartbeat barley survives.
But there are some humans who take that mouse and shoo it out
which leaves the mouse confused as to why the human didn't shout.
Oh Lord teach me to not entertain the gossip that occurs around me
because a serpent will come to eat these mice, and that's darkness I never want to see.
