THE DIBLEY GIRL

ONE BECAME AN AGENT FOR THE QUEENS ARMY
HE COULD HEAR 100 MILES IF HE COULN'T SEE
HE COULD SPEAK A DOZEN LANGUAGES AND WRITE A DOZEN MORE
WHICH IS WHY THEY CALLED HIM IN ABOUT THE DIBLEY GIRL

TWO BECAME A LEGEND IN THE BILLIARD HALLS
HE COULD OUTPLAY ANY RODENT WITH A PING-PONG BALL
HIS WHISKERS WERE PERSIMMON AND HIS COAT WAS PALE
HE HAD A SPECIAL INTEREST IN THE DIBLEY GIRL

THREE WAS LIKE THE BIGGEST MOUSE YOU'VE EVER SEEN
HE WAS STRONG ENOUGH TO OPEN UP THE DISH MACHINE
HE WAS FRIENDS WITH ALL THE LITTLE PUNKS BENEATH THE STAIRS
SO THEY PUT HIM ON THE CASE AGAINST THE DIBLEY GIRL

THE DIBLEY GIRL WAS SLEEPING IN A BED OF HAY
IN A FEILD WITH ALL THE COWS IN COLDEST NOROWAY
THE WINTERY WINDS CAME WEEPING O'ER THE FEILDS OF ICE
WHILE CREEPING THROUGH THE SHADOWS CAME...
THE THREE BLIND MICE!

SEE HOW THEY RUN?

SHE NEVER KNEW THE MOTIVE OR THE REASONS WHY
PERHAPS IT WAS THE 4 & 20 BLACKBIRD PIE
THE MOUSLINGS CAME UPON HER IN THE DEAD OF NIGHT
AND FELL SQUEAKING ON THE SHRIEKING DIBLEY GIRL

SHE WOKE WITH A START AND OPENED HER EYES
TO THREE LITTLE GUYS WITH THREE LITTLE NEEDLES
SHE LET OUT A LAUGH AND CUT THEM IN HALF
THEY WENT RUNNING BACK, BUT MISSING THEIR TWEEDLES
AND I COULD HAVE ADVISED THEM BEFORE THEIR FOIL:
THAT'S WHAT YOU GET FOR FUCKING WITH THE DIBLEY GIRL
