Mouse In My Toolbox

When I say goodnight
And I turn out the lights
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 streets

I hear a bang, bang, bang with my hammer
And a turn, turn, turn 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 her 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 a bang, bang, bang with my hammer
And a turn, turn, turn 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

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'll 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!
