When I say goodnight
And I turn out the light
I close my eyes,
Ready to sleep
Then I hear a noise but it’s
Not from my toys
My dogs or my cats
Or the street
I hear a bang bang bang
From my hammer
And a turn turn turn
Of my screwdriver
There’s a paw on my saw
And an eye on my drill
And a little tail is
Wrapped around my pliers
There’s a mouse
In my toolbox!
She wants a house
Like my house
She wants a floor
Like my floor
She wants to rock
In a rocking chair on the
Porch outside her front door
And she wants a room
Like my room
She wants a bed like my bed
She wants a toy chest
Full of toys, that’s painted
Purple and red
I hear her bang bang bang
With my hammer
And turn turn turn
My screwdriver
There’s a paw on my saw
And an eye on my drill
And her little tail is
Wrapped around my pliers
There’s a mouse
In my toolbox
I turn on the light again
Look at my tiny friend
And I start to
Dream my own dream
I’ll help build a house
As a gift for my mouse
And then we can
Both go to sleep
And so I’ll bang bang bang
With my hammer
And I’ll turn turn turn
My screwdriver
I’ll use my wrench
And my saw
And my power drill
And I tie it with a bow
Made out of wire
For the mouse in my toolbox
For the mouse in my toolbox
For the mouse in my toolbox
Bang bang bang!
