Humming and humming and humming.
They bring desert, unnerving.
Ringity tingity dingy.
The cake, it too, is melting.
Drumming and drumming and drumming.
The icing, it tastes of plum.
Tap and wack and tap and wack.
A life lived within a trap.
Running and running and running,
are the field mice to mourning.
Ticking and tock and tick and tock.
The paddling goes knock and knock.
Munch and munch and munch and munch.
This serving is just too much.
Tip toe, and toe tip, and tip toe.
Hide away your every foe.
Alas, alas, you see, alas,
They wait for the toast from your glass.
Humming and humming and humming.
How long shall they be watching?
