Verse 1
A mouse! A m o u s e !
I think I saw a mouse
Creeping there beneath the chair
Of our royal house
A mouse! A m o u s e !
I think I saw a mouse
Inside the royal walls of our palace.
Verse 2
The cat! The cat!
Wake up the royal cat
I think we feed him too much food
He really is too fat
Wake up! Wake up!
And chase the mice away
We cannot have these rodents in our palace.
Chorus
Hurry up, call all the royal servants!
Hurry up, call all the royal guards!
Hurry up, chase all those little rodents
Out of the palace grounds!
Verse 3
A mouse! A m o u s e !
Can this be really true?
I've never chased a mouse before
Whatever do I do?
Where did they go?
They move too fast for me
Inside the royal walls of our palace.
