*We fought a war with mice and won
They had appeared in the house one by one
Soon they grew and had a crew
In our store they hide and ate*

*They were living like king and we looked like pawn
They stole our grains
Left us with pains
They run around like they own the house*

*Dare us to our front we had a flinch
We bought a cat and set a bait
We thought they'll pick and it'll set them straight 
We hate the sight of mice alot*

*Soon enough our cat had feasts
Dine on their meat and left some bones
Maybe as incentives or evidence for us
Now, we are free of mice and it's troubles*
