  • Lyrics: This is a story about 4 little mice Who never used manners, and they weren’t very nice. They didn’t share, and they never said please. And their mom would get mad when they’d eat all the cheese. One little mouse was unruly and lazy. The other was rude and drove his schoolteacher crazy. The 3rd little mouse interrupted adults. The 4th chewed his gum, stuck it under the couch. The mice, mice, mice… oh, they weren’t very nice. One day the cat caught all 4 of the mice. Caught in a corner they still weren’t very nice. They snickered. They joked. They kicked, and they punched. So the cat scooped them up, and 3 became lunch. The cat, cat, cat… cat’s tummy got fat. 3 mice had lost, the hungry cat won. The 4th little mouse was sure he’d be gone. He said, “Mr. Cat, may I please just go? I need to be home or my mom worries so.” The cat, cat, cat… he stopped just like that. The cat said “Why, yes, you nice little mouse. Run along home and go back to your house. Remember your manners and share all your cheese. Help Mom and Dad and always say please.” And be nice, nice, nice … or be lunch like those mice. (2x) So the cat opened his mouth and out popped 3 mice. “Please let us go, and we’ll surely be nice. We won’t be rude. We’ll always say please. We just need to get home and share all our cheese.” And the mice, mice, mice… had learned to be nice. And the mice, mice … had finally learned to be nice. This was a story about 4 little mice who never used manners But finally learned to be nice.

Then came the opportunity to lead the Sunday School music. So the company man became the music ...
