This trap's a snap
Apologies to all my friends
who love their rats and mice
I had a critter in my house
that wasn't cute or nice
All day he'd nap, but as night fell
he'd venture out to snack
He loved my chocolates, and my bread
and Pringles by the stack
The straw that broke the camel's back
was when he chewed a hole
right through my bag of garlic toast
and all the garlic stole
I tried a sturdy wooden trap
he laughed and took my cheese
I set a bunch of sticky ones
he passed them by with ease
And then I came to Amazon
(there's so much that they sell)
I found this cheap and simple trap
that works so very well
The bait goes in the little hole
and then just set the trap
Relax and have a glass of wine
And wait to hear the snap
The final step's the easiest
Just lift the latch and dump
You'll never, ever touch again
a mouse's furry rump
