Our stove has a glass door, so often the first awareness i have of the mouse in there is the cats watching "kittie TV"

an endangered species that invaded a house
A mobile home I purchased in Florida north
I paid very little, for what it is worth
The Florida Mouse with its big brown eyes
and long hind legs was fast and wise
resembling Speedy Gonzales, without the hat,
but with the speed, I'll tell you that.
It has a unique odor, you can call it a stink
Whenever I smelled it, I would stop and think...
..there is a mouse in the room, I detect its smell
And now I would have to search real well.
These mice would somehow open cabinet doors,
and build their nests, but pee on the floors.
One time I smelled something that died
traced to a CD player that open I pryed..
..there I found a mouse, and babies in bed
got in but not out, and now they are dead
One night, I tossed and turned, I could not sleep
because of a sound, that was more than a peep.
In the AC duct, a quick "tink tink tink tink"
A mouse scratching its fleas, and of course the stink
But here is the clincher that made me buy
a case of Great Foam, I'll tell you why
When I went to the home and found a nest
with two dead babies, but no sign of a pest
four hours later, I find, and this is no fake
..a bulge in the middle of a three foot long snake
The snake in the bathroom! But I was not too scared
Now I know how mama mouse had fared
So Great Foam it is! Over and under and within the house
in every opening I foamed to keep out the mouse
And every other critter found in this state
No sign of any, to this date
I hope you enjoyed my poem of the mouse
and what you can get when you buy a cheap house.

So now all the mice want indoors.....
So it's off for some traps and mouse-killing chaps
Who've poison that we can't buy in stores.....
A chunk of steel wool, to stuff down their hole
A repeller that plugs into the wall
With all that I've spent, It's a clear sentiment -
I don't care for the b-----ds at all!
