Jethro Tull - ... & The Mouse Police Never Sleeps Lyrics
Muscled, black with steel-green eyeSwishing through the rye grassWith 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!Hes 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 dayTo dawn patrol on hungry hate....no, the mouse police never sleeps ---Climbing on the ivy.Windy roof-top weather*****.Warm-blooded night on a cold tile.
