Shadows of the night
Charlie was a city cat
The leader of the gang
He had a fight with smokey JoeÂ
He bit him with his fang
Smokey Joe he ran away
He never made a scene
Whilst Charlie watched and stood his ground
His eyes were emerald green
He wasn’t scared of anyone
At least not of a cat
But in the shadows from the alleyÂ
Scrambled out a rat
His shadow was so big thatÂ
It was all that Charlie saw
It looked like a wild monster
As it stood upon the floor
Charlie shivered and a’shook
His knees was all a’tremble
He tried to think just what this was and what it did resemble
“Oh please dont eat me” Charlie criedÂ
“Oh Smokey Joe please help”
He heard a whisper from behind
It gave a little whelp
Smokey Joe was stood thereÂ
Thinking Heavens, Fancy that!!
This bully of an animal
Is frightened of a rat!!
