.

The mice are bad in Khanabad
Not qualifying as a fad 

There it goes inside the tent
And do you see just where it went?

Oh, watch it run beneath my cot
I'll get it with my cooking pot.

It's quick, it's slick, a nasty pick
Where is my handy mocking stick?

Scat, scat, get up and out
I know what you are all about

It scurries underneath my feet
As if to dare to take a peek.

Hurry or he'll get away
Oh, I will catch him anyway.

Sand and dunes shall harbor you
Your entrance here is right on cue.

Winky, slinky, cross and stinky,
I will scare you with my binky.

Snap, snap, get the trap
And snatch the frisky, risky rat.
