Do without Rats
Monkey see
Monkey do
Do it again
Do what you like
Like an apple
Like a banana
Banana can be eaten
Banana can be baked
Baked in an oven
Baked till it's golden
Golden is the honey
Golden and runny
Runny like a river
Runny like my nose
Nose can't be eaten
Nose needs tissues
Tissues are not an issue
Tissues are in a box
Box made of card-board
Box out of my reach
Reach out to the box
Reach out to the cookies
Cookies in a jar
Cookies have chocolate
Chocolate is dark and sweet
Chocolate makes me fat
Fat like pumpkins
Fat like pigeons
Pigeons love grains
Pigeons have a small brain
Brain which I lent
Brain which he took
Took for fun
Took for an experiment
Experiment that's classified
Experiment where rats died
Died almost immediately
Died of laughter
Laughter filled the lab
Laughter of a lunatic
Lunatic rats
Lunatic doctor
Doctor with the green eyes
Doctor living downstairs
Downstairs in the basement
Downstairs with the rats
Rats that glow
Rats that are fluorescent
Fluorescent
Glow
