THE GOOD-FOR-NOTHING CAT.
Reading edition
THERE lives a good-for-nothing cat, So lazy it appears, That chirping birds can softly come And light upon her ears. And rats and mice can venture out To nibble at her toes, Or climb around and pull her tail, Or boldly scratch her nose. Fine servants brush her silken coat And give her cream for tea; Yet she’s a good-for-nothing cat, As all the world may see.
