This is the farmer sowing his corn,
That kept the cock that crowed in the morn,
That waked the priest all shaven and shorn,
That married the man all tattered and torn,
That kissed the maiden all forlorn,
That milked the cow with the crumpled horn,
That tossed the dog,
That worried the cat,
That killed the rat,
That ate the malt
That lay in the house that Jack built.

--Ecological consequences.

I was thinking of the King and the mouse

King has mouse
King gets cats to chase away mouse
King gets dogs to chase away cats
King gets Elephant to chase away dogs
King gets mouse to chase away elephant

To: Cicero
Or...."Chad Gad Yo".
A traditional song sung at the first Seder each Passover.

One little goat, one little goat,
That my father bought for two zuzim.
One little goat, one little goat.

Then came a cat and ate the goat
That my father bought for two zuzim.
One little goat, one little goat.

Then came a dog and bit the cat,
That ate the goat
That my father bought for two zuzim.
One little goat, one little goat.

Then came a stick and beat the dog,
That bit the cat
That ate the goat
That my father bought for two zuzim.
One little goat, one little goat.

Then came a fire and burned the stick
That beat the dog
That bit the cat
That ate the goat
That my father bought for two zuzim.
One little goat, one little goat.

Then came the water and quenched the fire,
That burned the stick
That beat the dog
That bit the cat
That ate the goat
That my father bought for two zuzim.
One little goat, one little goat.

Then came an ox and drank the water,
That quenched the fire
That burned the stick
That beat the dog
That bit the cat
That ate the goat
That my father bought for two zuzim.
One little goat, one little goat.

Then came a shohet and slaughtered the ox,
That drank the water that quenched the fire
That burned the stick that beat the dog
That bit the cat that ate the goat
That my father bought for two zuzim.
One little goat, one little goat.

Then came the angel of death and killed the shohet,
That slaughtered the ox that drank the water
That quenched the fire that burned the stick
That beat the dog that bit the cat
That ate the goat
That my father bought for two zuzim.
One little goat, one little goat.

Then came the Holy One, blessed be He,
And slew the angel of death,
That killed the shohet that slaughtered the ox
That drank the water that quenched the fire
That burned the stick that beat the dog
That bit the cat that ate the goat
That my father bought for two zuzim.
One little goat, one little goat.
