The Lost Mouse Me Too!

# Come on and get on down to the city

# Where the trains all clatter through

# Hey, Look at that driver driving

-# I want to ride that train of blue

-# Me too

# I'm looking way up high to the windows

# Take a peek for an inside view

# All those people busy working

# I want to see what they all do

# Come on, let's weave Round the market

# Do you hear that hullabaloo?

# Everybody's busy selling

-# I wanna buy me something new

-# Me too

# Look through the arches Under the station

# Down where the pigeons Perch and coo

# Take a taxi ride to the river

# I wanna drive down the avenue

# Hey, look at those buses gleaming

# They look so clean and spanking new

# All lined up to drive around the city

-# Let me ting that bell

-# Ding, ding!

# I'm gonna ride on round to the school stop

# Where the children hurry through

# Sit down, the teacher's teaching

-# I'd love to learn a thing or two

-# Me too

# I love to skip in Riverseafingal

# Riverseafingal, by the sea. #

Ten o'clock.

# Riverseafingal, that's for me

# Come on and get on down to the city

-# Where the ferryboat sails are blue

-# Sails are blue

# Time to call on Granny Murray

# She'd love to say hello to you.

# Me too! #

Hello, honey pie. Come in and see who's at home today.

# Granny Murray's house Has two at home to play

# Granny Murray's house is home... #

Who's here today?

Well, we've got Eva and we've got Ashley.

Don't just sit there, my wee fruit scones. Let's get busy.

-What's that?

-A sheet.

Let's pretend to be different animals under it.

Brrrrrr.

Got it?

-Elephant.

-Clever girl, Eva.

You can make the noises if you want.

What's that? I can hear a wee miaow.

Which animal does that sound?

A cat!

Yay, well done, Eva! A cat.

We've got Eva and Ashley, but someone's missing

from home today.

Och, not any more.

Who's coming home?

Oh, yes, it's Tina, with Lisa.

Hello there.

Tina.

And Lisa.

Come through and see everybody

In you come, cherubs.

It's an animal day. Now Lisa's here, we'll do something new.

Why don't you all dress Claude up as a rabbit?

I'll just hop to my burrow over there.

Good idea, Bunnykins.

Bunnykins.

So, what you got planned to do today, Granny Murray?

I was thinking about Castle Park, the children's zoo.

There's all sorts of animals.

That'll be right up Lisa's street.

She's been going on about getting a pet.

Raymond and I are thinking about getting one.

But it's a surprise.

Oh, right. Mum's the word. What kind of pet?

We're not sure.

How about a frog?

We were thinking of something a bit more cuddly than a frog.

How about a Highland cow?

My friend had one and said it was lovely and cuddly.

I don't think Lisa could fit a cow into her bedroom.

I expect we'll get something smaller, like a gerbil

or a chinchilla.

No, I know! Lisa would love a mouse.

Well, they all sound lovely.

-Just as long as she remembers to always be kind to animals.

-Oh, yes.

Talking of hoppy things, look at Claude.

My, Claude, what big ears you have!

Yes, and a cute wee nose.

Oh, is that for me, Lisa? Eek, eek, eek.

-Just like the mouse we talked about.

-Shh.

Don't spoil the surprise, Granny Murray.

Silly me.

Thank you, Lisa. Bye bye.

There we are.

Come on, you.

Where are you going?

I'm off to work. Bye bye.

Now remember, always be kind to animals.

Thank you. I'll see you later.

Bye. We'll be thinking of you.

Me too.

Will you keep an eye on Tina and make sure she goes the right way?

I'd better hurry.

Could you tell me the fastest way for me to get to work?

Thank you.

# I'm in in in in in a hurry.

# I need need need to speed to work

# I'll take a take a ticket On the subway

# I'll be be be be be be there Quite quick

# Hurry hurry hurry Through the tunnels

# Clatter clatter clatter underground

# Whining drives the speed up

# Squeaking slows us down

# Clatter under streets Then squeaking to our stop

# I'm in in in, I'm in a hurry

# I need to speed to work. #

Phew! Well, what now?

Of course! I have to get ready for work.

Good morrow, fair maid.

What news of the queen?

Raymond, what are you doing here?

Before I dash to work, I thought I'd knock up a cage for Lisa's new pet.

A masterpiece.

But we haven't decided what pet we're getting Lisa yet.

That doesn't matter. A cage is a cage.

But what if it's a big rabbit? That'll need a big cage.

This cage is gonna be big enough for a rabbit.

OK. What if it's a small pet, like a mouse?

If it's a small pet like a mouse, it'll just have a really big house.

Plenty of room for guests.

Well, yes, but...

Oh, dear.

I wonder how my little pet's getting on?

# I love to skip in Riverseafingal

# Riverseafingal by the sea

# I love to skip in Riverseafingal

# Riverseafingal, that's for me

They're noisy! Glad I kept this stale bread.

The ducks love it.

In fact, Lisa,

it drives them "quackers"!

Here, Mr Duck.

Here, Mr Duck.

If you don't want to get clobbered, "duck".

Oh, dear. Do you think your mum would like to feed the ducks?

'What are you doing now, Mummy?'

What do you think of my new pet cage?

It's... Well, it's different.

-It's much better than you can buy.

-Apart from these gaps.

Any small animal could easily crawl through these.

You couldn't put any pet in that.

We'll have to give it more of a think.

But I need to get to work, so bye, love.

And it's time for me to get down to some hard work too.

# City roads are waiting

# The traffic lights are changing

# Police cars are cruising

# The truckers keep a-trucking

# And the city roads are waiting For me!

# So take a drive In my pretty pink taxi

# People wave me down In my pretty pink taxi

# Get into the back And just relax for the ride

# Pretty pink taxi She's going for a drive

# Look in the mirror, shift that gear

# Pull out of the busy lane My pretty pink taxi takes the strain

# The radio calls up a taxi fare Who am I going to meet?

CAR HORN BEEPS

# Looking for a job In my pretty pink taxi, oh-oh-ohhh

Woo!

# Cruising the city In my pretty pink taxi, yeah

# Drive, drive

# Drive in my pretty pink taxi

# Ride, ride, ride

# Hey, where you wanna go?

Taxi!

# Cos I need to take a drive In my pretty pink taxi

# People wave me down And relax for the ride

Oh, Bobby.

Hiya. Have you just finished work or could you give me a lift?

This is bedding for Kai's hamster. It's a lot to carry.

-Hop in. I'll give you a lift home.

-Great.

So, Kai's got a pet hamster?

-Yeah. She's called Cheeky.

-What a great name.

Hamsters store a lot of their food in their cheeks - like this.

Oh, right.

We want to get Lisa a pet.

Something small, like a hamster,

or maybe a mouse.

Go to the pet shop near your garage.

They've got all sorts of animals.

That's a great idea. I'll do that.

But not today. They're in a bit of a flap. Some mice have escaped.

Escaped mice? Oh, crumbs.

Great. Nice to see you.

Oh, thank you.

Oops. I'm afraid I've left a bit of a mess in the back of your taxi.

Don't worry about that.

-See ya.

-Bye.

Well, at least you haven't escaped, Mr Mouse.

I wonder what Lisa's doing right now.

# I love to skip in Riverseafingal

# Riverseafingal, that's for me. #

Aren't they cute, Lisa? They're gorgeous.

Hello, wee fluffy tail.

Look at his wee floppy ear.

I wish we could take one home.

Mind you, what would Mum say?

'Where's your taxi, Mummy?'

I know you love animals, Lisa, but I wish I knew what pet to get you.

Phew, I could do with a cuppa.

I have to hurry to school. Could you give me a ride?

I was going to put my feet up for five minutes,

but as it's you, Mickey John, hop in.

Oh, argh!

-Oh!

-Ay ay ay!

Mickey John, no feet on seats please.

B-b-but a mouse. I saw a mouse!

A mouse? In my taxi? Ha ha, I don't think so.

A mouse. Argh!

Never mind about the lift. I'll run to school.

Well, this will never do.

I can't go frighten my passengers,

so that they run off before we've even started.

How did that happen?

Where did the time go?

At 10 o'clock, I dropped Lisa at Granny Murray's.

Granny Murray was having a special animal day,

so the children dressed Claude as a rabbit.

I told Granny Murray that I wanted to get Lisa a pet as a surprise.

At 11 o'clock, Raymond turned up with a whole load of old wood.

He began hammering and banging,

because he wanted to make a cage for Lisa's new pet.

But we didn't know what pet we were going to get her.

At 12 o'clock,

Raymond had finished his cage, but it didn't look right.

For a start, it didn't even have a door.

At three o'clock,

Bobby came to the garage and asked for a lift.

She'd just bought lots of bedding for Kai's pet hamster.

Bobby told me that lots of mice had escaped from the pet shop

and she was worried that she'd left a bit of a mess in my taxi.

At four o'clock,

Mickey John asked for a lift to school.

But when he got in my taxi, he screamed about seeing a mouse

and jumped out of my taxi and ran away.

Now, remember, always be kind to animals.

Always be kind to animals.

Well, of course I shall.

Hah! I've got it!

One of the escaped mice from the pet shop

must have hidden in Bobby's pet's bedding

and got left behind in my taxi when I dropped her off.

So Mickey John really did see a mouse in my taxi.

Oh, I've got to rescue the poor little thing.

It's a race against time.

# I've got to do it I've got to do it

# I've got to beat the clock Before the chime

# I've got to sort it

# I've got to do the job on time

# Like a busy bee, I'll beat that bong

# I'll finish the job Before I finish the song

# Do we think she's going to do it? Do the job that needs to be done

# Will she know how to fix it?

# Will she finish What she has begun?

# She will get there in the end Because she knows what she should do

# I'm going to do it

# I'm going to beat the clock Before the chime

# I'm going to sort it

-# She's going to sort it

-# I'm going to do the job on time

# Like a busy bee I'll to beat that bong

# I'll finish this job Before I finish this song

Hello, Mr Mouse.

You're safe and sound, you wee thing.

You're a handsome boy. Yes, you are.

Tina, what's that?

I caught a mouse that escaped from the pet shop.

Oh, isn't he sweet? He'd make a lovely pet.

Well, that's it! He can be Lisa's new pet.

Would you like to come home

and live with Lisa, Mousey?

I know you're busy, so why don't I take the mouse home for you?

It'd be waiting for Lisa when she gets back.

As a surprise!

Oh, that's great.

Thanks, Dr Juno. I'll nip to the pet shop and tell them I've found him.

-I'll see you later.

-Bye! Bye bye, Mousey.

Oh, Lisa's going to be so happy with her new pet.

'I can't wait to show him to you, Lisa.'

Look at that wee chocolate face.

We'd better be off home. Your mum'll be back to pick you up soon.

We can tell her about all the animals we've seen.

'I wish I was with you, Mummy.'

Tina!

Come in.

Look who's here, Lisa.

-Hello, Lisa.

-Hi.

Hello. Did you have a nice day with Granny Murray?

-You betcha.

-You say thanks.

-Thank you, Granny Murray.

Oh, thanks from me too. I remembered what you said.

Always be kind to animals. It saved the day.

Oh, is that so?

Come on. You'll want to be home.

Bye bye, my darlings. Looking forward to next time.

-Me too.

-And raaargh!

-Raaargh!

Shall we talk about our time away?

-No, drive time!

-Drive time!

I suppose you'll want me to tell you all about my time too?

# Well, there was

# Playing, creeping, jumping Chasing, painting

# Dressing, singing, swinging Hunting, hiding

# Jumping up, turning round

# Dressing up and sitting down! #

What was really special about today?

Well, Claude was dressed as a rabbit,

because Lisa and I were going to have a special animal day.

Tina told me she wanted to get Lisa a new pet as a surprise.

I took Lisa to the park. We took some stale bread with us.

We had a lovely time feeding the ducks.

Then we went to the children's zoo.

Lisa loved the rabbits.

Afterwards, we had tea in the park

and Lisa had a surprise waiting for her at home.

Her new pet mouse.

Tina remembered that you must always be kind to animals

and I'm sure Lisa will do just that.

I'm looking forward to my carrot tea.

I hope you enjoyed yourself.

Me too.

Bye bye, honey pie.
