Run, Rat, Run (Second Version)

Run, rat, run! Run as fast as you can. You must run to earn your bread! If you stop running, You will earn nothing And you won’t be able to get fed. Run, rat, run! Run early in the morning Or run late into the night. Either wake up before Mr. Sun Or wake up with the Man in the Moon For you cannot afford respite. Run, rat, run! You’re the best runner we have! The most successful racer by far! Keep running at this pace And you just might win the race! Thank you for giving us all that you are. Run, rat, run! What’s this? You want extra crumbs? Proposturous! Utterly ridiculous! You’re not even that speedy And you’re already being greedy. You cannot possibly be serious. Run, rat, run! Don’t slow down now Though you puff and you pant for air. If you keep running You will stop foolishly thinking That this life isn’t right or fair. Run rat run! Don’t stop now! You must run all day, all night long! If you really hope to thrive And you really want to survive  You must continue to run strong!...

Spiders' Pest Control



When the flies land on your hamburger

Or take a sip from your sprite,

When they buzz around your head annoying you,

And you become filled with spite,


When you’re tired of bringing out the fly swatters

And tired of throwing away a good meal,

It’s time to call the pest control.

Spider’s Pest Control has an excellent deal.


The spiders love their job as pest control

There is no fine or fee.

Their reward is eating flies for lunch,

And that’s why their work is free.


All they require is a bit of food,

A little bit of bait, 

To lure the flies to their webs,

Then all they must do is wait.


The fly who comes to land on the spoil 

Ends up caught in their beautiful web.

The spider rushes in for the kill

The fly is silk wrapped and dead.


The spiders will take their webbing,

And then they will take their leave.

Unless you want them to stay of course.

So long as spiders aren’t your pet peeve.


Just take care not to squash the spiders out of fright;

Dead spiders can’t make dead flies.

Pay them mind so they can work

To keep the pests off your ketchup and fries.


Once the spiders kill all the flies 

The annoying buzzing will cease.

So watch them do all the dirty work,

And enjoy your meal in peace.
