So many pocket gophers lying dead on the floor!
One two three this morning for the cats are bringing more

With four cats no waiting and pocket gopher hating
At an all time high one hears the meowings of a war
That something in the spring that involves some suffering
Though not for a cat (a cat makes very sure of that)

Out of their pockets tiny eyes out of their sockets
With fear but here they come to rot so in the grotto

When their minds are made up now and cats are getting fat
What they want is not a lizard nor is it a rat
Looks like now is when somehow the pocket gophers go
Even though out of pocket no small change even so

One two three this morning for the cats are bringing more
So many pocket gophers lying dead on the floor!
