bernard cribbins - the tale of a mouse lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
a mouse fell in love with an elephant
an elephant wide and tall
on the whole, he was large for an elephant
while the mouse, for a mouse, was small

but, the love of the mouse
was as big as a house
and she cried to the midnight sky
“i’m in love with him so
i’ve got to let him know or die”

[verse 2]
so, she started to be seen being seen around
in places where elephants go
with the air of a mouse that has been around
with a nod and a “hiya, joe”

but, shе couldn’t impart
that the love in heart
it was morе than her heart could bear
and the elephant thought
“she’s a very friendly sort of square”

[bridge]
“give him up,” said her friends
“give him up and forget”
“it’ll never work out”
said her aunt
“oh, i know,” said the mouse
“and i know that i should
“and i would if i could
“but i can’t”

[verse 3]
but, at last it became so unbearable
she went very far away
for she knew that her love wasn’t shareable
and she hoped she’d forget one day

well, she did in the end
her heart seemed to mend
and the past? well, the past was dead
she’s no longer in love with an elephant, of course
but she’s fallen for a horse instead
