There was a white mouse consultation
Down at the county fair
All the church mice
Field mice and not so nice mice
Everybody gathered there
You see the muckety-muck, he was speaking
Telling them where it was at
He said, "Hear, hear
There ain't nothing to fear
Except a three eyed Siamese cat"
And the crowd was stunned
See, no single mouse had ever seen one
He said, "Don't be scared
We're prepared"
Then he held up a great big picture
So every mouse could see
What a three eyed Siamese cat looked like
The face of the enemy
And the crowd let out such a shudder
As they lined up file and rank
Staring at a twenty foot picture frame
Surrounding a twenty foot blank
Just empty space
But every single mouse
Swore he saw a face
He said, "Don't be scared
We're prepared"
Then the muckety-muck started screaming
Yelling till his voice gave out
He said, "Now that you've seen
What the cat looks like
Gonna tell you what he's all about"
He said, "He don't eat cheese on Friday
And he goes around licking his paws
He's awful mean
And he loves to keep clean
And believes in changing laws"
And the crowd went wild
And every mouse began
To fear for his child
"Don't be scared
We're prepared"
"Now two times two is forty-five"
The muckety-muck explained
"And the flat side of the moon is green
And the farmer don't need no rain
And the night is light
And might is right
And Supermouse is on our side
And the three eyed Siamese cat's a plague
From which nobody can hide"
And the mice all cringed
"The whiskers of that cat
Would soon be singed
Don't be scared
We're prepared"
Then the muckety-muck started singing
Through his great paternal grin
And the church mice, field mice
All the patriotic mice
Everybody chimed right in
They sang, "This land is mice land
Mice country tis of thee
Well, my father took it
From the beaver rat
Nobody's gonna take it from me"
And the mice all cheered
The sound that they were making
Sure was weird
"Don't be scared
We're prepared"
Then the muckety-muck said, "Line up here
Everybody give a buck
To fight the three eyed Siamese cat
Takes money and a little bit of luck
We've got a million of our best young mice
To go out and volunteer
To give up what they're living for
To make the cat disappear
Let's give them a hand
Yay
We don't want that cat
Invading our land
No way
We're not scared
We're prepared"
Then a mighty strange thing happened
Guess you could call it fate
You see, a gust of wind
Blew the picture frame down
And it landed on the muckety-muck's head
And the mice they all went crazy
For the first time they saw the lie
It was all a hoax
On just simple folks
And the muckety-muck must die
And die he did
The members of his staff they just fled
They were scared, hah
Just not prepared
