Cat In A Box
Don't send your cat by catapult
Don't send your puss by rail
Don't pop it in an envelope
And frank it on the tail
Don't send it up in gas balloon
Or underground by Tube
Don't dehydrate it down in size
Just like an Oxo cube
Don't drop it off a towering cliff
All weighted down with rocks
Like Oscar they are happy when
Inside a see-through box
It's cosy, warm and draught-proof
And comfortable within
There's only one small problem -
To get the b***** in.
