[Verse 1]

Smile your little smile, take some tea with me awhile

Brush away that black cloud from your shoulder

Twitch your whiskers, feel that you're really real

Another tea-time, another day older

[Verse 2]

Puff warm breath on your tiny hands

You wish you were a man who every day can turn another page

Behind your glass you sit and look at my ever-open book

One brown mouse sitting in a cage

[Bridge]

Do you wonder if I really care for you?

Am I just the company you keep?

Which one of us exercises on the old treadmill?

Who hides his head, pretending to sleep?

[Verse 1]

Smile your little smile, take some tea with me awhile

Brush away that black cloud from your shoulder

Twitch your whiskers, feel that you're really real

Another tea-time, another day older

[Verse 3]

Smile your little smile, take some tea with me awhile

And every day we'll turn another page

Behind our glass we'll sit and look at our ever-open book

One brown mouse sitting in a cage

[Outro]

One brown mouse sitting in a cage

One brown mouse sitting in a cage
