Lyrics
Muscled, black with steel-green eye
Swishing through the rye grass
With thoughts of mouse-and-apple pie
Tail balancing at half-mast
...And the mouse police never sleeps ---
Lying in the cherry tree
Savage bed foot-warmer of purest feline ancestry
Look out, little furry folk!
He's the all-night working cat
Eats but one in every ten ---
Leaves the others on the mat
...And the mouse police never sleeps ---
Waiting by the cellar door
Window-box town crier;
Birth and death registrar
With claws that rake a furrow red ---
Licensed to multilate
From warm milk on a lazy day
To dawn patrol on hungry hate
...No, the mouse police never sleeps ---
Climbing on the ivy
Windy roof-top weathercock
Warm-blooded night on a cold tile
