The Seven Tiny Little Mice
Sesame Street · Other Songs - Sesame Street
In a tall boot that was very nice
Lived seven tiny little mice
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
At seven o'clock, they were all fed
With strawberry jelly on a slice of bread
On seven slices of whole-wheat bread
One at a time, the jam was spread
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
And after dinner, they cleaned their rooms
These seven mice, with their seven brooms
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
Then into bed and turn out the light
And the seven mice all said "Good night!"
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
Lived seven tiny little mice
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
At seven o'clock, they were all fed
With strawberry jelly on a slice of bread
On seven slices of whole-wheat bread
One at a time, the jam was spread
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
And after dinner, they cleaned their rooms
These seven mice, with their seven brooms
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
Then into bed and turn out the light
And the seven mice all said "Good night!"
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
