The Grey Mouse lyrics

By herself, by herself watching the party This small mouse upon a shelf Very old, very old, she felt no cheer At the dawn of the New Year New Year! New Year! Friends! Friends! Friends! she said, Young friends" (young friends) she said (she said!), Dance, dance! my young friends, dance! But do beware, beware, I warn you, I warn you, I warn you! For, I do have danced and sung like you I too have been young so young so young But! But, but but but alas alas Time came to join in the dancing This came to join in the fun
