I had two rats to fill my days - Pantoum

I had two rats, to fill my days Through spines of books and bed clothes They chewed their lazy way And when they saw you, froze Through spines of books and bed clothes Released out of their cage And when they saw you, froze For chewing was their rage Released out of their cage And when they saw you, froze For chewing was their rage Their pile of booty grows And when they saw you, froze They lurked behind the dresser Their pile of booty grows The cage mess is the lesser They lurked behind the dresser They chewed their lazy way The cage mess is the lesser I had two rats, to fill my days
