Weve been hearing noises in our roof
Dad thought it could be bats~
Mum said don't be too suprised
it might even be rats~
Dad went up to have a look
And you would never guess~
He found two little fat possums up there
And my goodness what a mess~
There were bits of chewed up vegitables
And lots of apple cores so old~
And little bits of pumkin skins
They really had been bold~
They must have been very well fed
For they wasted much it seems~
And all the time they were so busy
I was fast asleep within my dreams~
But my dad caught the both of them
And blocked the place where they got in~
Tonight will be so quiet mum said
There will be no more din~
Then dad let them go out in the bush
And O boy did they scramble high~
As they climbed way up the highest tree
Away up closer to the sky~
