Four Shadow - Little Mouse lyrics

rate me

For two whole months you've lived with me, little mouse

Creeping 'long the walls while I watch TV, little mouse

I asked all my friends to see if they know

How to make a little mouse go away; they did not know

You sure are lucky to be here, little mouse.

Sat down after lunch to write a little tune, little mouse

Glanced at the floor and there was you, little mouse

You kinda scared me at first, all furry and brown

But I realized from your stillness as I kept looking down

That you were dead! It was a very sad moment, little mouse.

Cooked up an idea to bury you, little mouse

It seemed it was the least I could do, little mouse

After all this time of sharing a place

But I could not stand to see your fuzzy face

So I covered you up with a bowl. It was my roommate's.

Figured I'd bury you down by the lake, little mouse

I wondered about the plans and the dreams you made, little mouse

It was a funeral procession of one

Your life has just begun, baby child, little mouse

Man, I hope your family is not living in my walls...

With my fingers dug you a grave, little mouse

Stiff as a board but looking mighty brave, little mouse

With cars moving behind, mortality on my mind,

I left a stick in the ground to remember you by... little mouse...
