One Brown Mouse lyrics

Smile your little smile, take some tea with me awhile Brush away that black cloud from your shoulder Twitch your whiskers, feel that you're really real Another tea-time, another day older Puff warm breath on your tiny hands You wish you were a man Who every day can turn another page Behind your glass you sit and look At my ever-open book One brown mouse sitting in a cage Do you wonder if I really care for you Am I just the company you keep Which one of us exercises on the old treadmill Who hides his head, pretending to sleep? Smile your little smile, take some tea with me awhile Brush away that black cloud from your shoulder Twitch your whiskers, feel that you're really real Another tea-time, another day older Smile your little smile, take some tea with me awhile And every day we'll turn another page Behind our glass we'll sit and look At our ever-open book One brown mouse sitting in a cage
