"Sweet Rabbit"
I’M OUT OF TIME, OH DEAR OH DEAR,
AND THAT’S WHY I’M IN FEAR, I FEAR
HAVEN’T TIME TO STOP, FELLOWS
SO I’D BETTER HOP, FELLOWS
LOVELY DAY TO MEET FELLOWS
SWEET FELLOWS
I DON’T LIKE TO LEAVE, BUT I GUESS I’LL TRY.
I SAW THE QUEEN OF CLUBS, OF CLUBS.
I HID BETWEEN THE SHRUBS, THE SHRUBS.
CLOVER WISHED FOR MORE HIGH-NESS.
WANT'S TO MURDER YOUR HIGHNESS.
SHE WANTS TO UNSEAT TYRANT.
SWEET TYRANT.
FOR MY LIFE, I CANNOT IMAGINE WHY.
I HAD A SCARE SHE’D MUNCH, SHE’D MUNCH
ON JUICY HARE FOR LUNCH, FOR LUNCH.
THAT’S HOW RABBITS DIE, RABBIT.
CLUBS, THEY LIKE TO FRY RABBIT.
THEY MIGHT, RABBIT,
BITE RABBIT,
WHITE RABBIT.
RIGHT, RABBIT?
HUMANS EAT THE SWEET RABBIT MEAT, RABBIT.
WAIT, RABBIT--
WHAT IF HUMAN ATE RABBIT?
THEN YOU’D BE THE LATE RABBIT!
KILLED.
CHILLED.
DILLED.
GRILLED RABBIT.
IT'S BEEN FUN,
BUT NOW THAT IT'S DONE
I'VE GOT TO RUN,
SO THIS LITT'E BUN
IS GONNA
WANNA
SAY GOODBYE!
AND THAT’S WHY I’M IN FEAR, I FEAR
HAVEN’T TIME TO STOP, FELLOWS
SO I’D BETTER HOP, FELLOWS
LOVELY DAY TO MEET FELLOWS

"Rats in the Rectory"
THERE’S A CRACK IN THE GLASS OF THE UNIVERSE. CRACK!
THERE’S A GIRL. THERE’S THE QUIV’RING LITTLE MOUSE.
CALL THE SENTINEL! HARK! SEE HER SQUIRM,
SEE HER SQUEAL, SEE HER FALL TO THE SCIMITAR.
WATCH AS HER HEAD SLIDES DOWN THE SPIKE.
THERE’S A VOICE IN THE AIR.
OH, IT’S BEAUTIFUL.
OH! IT’S MY MOTHER’S VOICE.
OH. SHE IS DEAD.
SHE IS LULLING ME TO SLEEP:
SWEET MOUSE, TIME TO BED DOWN,
SETTLE YOUR HEAD. DOWN.
RIGHT WHERE YOU LIE.
NOW I CAN SEE INTO TIME.
TO MY DESTINY.
HERE! IT IS NOW.
THERE ARE FACES ALL IN CHAIRS.
THEY ARE JUDGING ME.
YOU! SOME ARE CRUEL, SOME ARE KIND,
SOME ARE BORED, SOME ARE MERCIFUL.
THEN WITH A WAVE, I WILL THEM GONE.
THERE’S A WOUND THROUGH MY HAND
AND IT’S FESTERING. BOTH.
IT’S ON BOTH MY HANDS.
SEE IT CHANGE.
RED TO BLACK, THEN BACK TO RED.
I SHAKE. THEN WAKE UP.
SLAP! I’M AWAKE. I’M ALIVE.
I AM NOT AFRAID. SLAP!
I’M AWAKE. I’M A GOOD MOUSE SAFE IN CHURCH.
OH THE ROYAL CHURCH.
PRAISE! WHERE THE QUEEN IN HER GOWN,
IN HER CAPE, WITH HER MITRED HEAD,
WELCOMING ME WITH OPEN FANGS.
THERE ARE RATS. THERE ARE RATS.
THERE ARE RATS IN THE RECTORY.
LOOK! IN THE RECTORY.
LOOK! SEE THEIR EYES.
SEE THEIR BLACK EYES TURN TO RED.
I AM ONE OF THEM.
I AM ONE OF THEM.
I AM ONE OF THEM.
I AM ONE OF THEM.
ALL THAT I WANT
IS THE MILK OF MY QUEEN,
OF MY MOTHER RAT,
MILK OF MY MOTHER RAT.
SUCKED FROM THE SUCK, SUCK,
SUCKLED DIRECTLY FROM HER TEATS.
LET ME HIDE INSIDE A CAVE.
THIS MOUSE WILL NOT BE BRAVE
TO SAVE
THE KNAVE.
NO. WHAT WILL DETERMINE
IF GOOD OR EVIL WILL PREVAIL?
ONE. ONE LITTLE VERMIN.
A LOT OF GUTS, A LITTLE TAIL.
NO. I SHAN’T BE MEEK.
WORLD, BEHOLD MY SQUEAK!
EEEE! EEEEE! EEEEEEE!
THERE’S A GIRL. THERE’S THE QUIV’RING LITTLE MOUSE.
