Lyrics Mouse In My Toolbox - Laurie Berkner

When I say goodnight and I turn out the light
I close my eyes ready to sleep
Then I hear a noise, but it's not from my toys
My dogs or my cats or the street

I hear a bang bang bang from my hammer
And a turn turn turn my screwdriver
There's a paw on my saw and an eye on my drill
And a little tail is wrapped around my pliers
There's a mouse in my toolbox

She wants a house like my house
She wants a floor like my floor
She wants to rock in a rocking chair
On a porch outside her front door

And she wants a room like my room
She wants a bed like my bed
She wants a toy chest full of toys
That's painted purple and red

I hear her bang bang bang with my hammer
And turn turn turn my screwdriver
There's a paw on my saw and an eye on my drill
And her little tail is wrapped around my pliers
There's a mouse in my toolbox

I turn on the light again
Look at my tiny friend
And I start to dream my own dream

I'll help build a house as a gift for my mouse
And then we can both go to sleep

And so I
Bang bang bang with my hammer
And I'll turn turn turn my screwdriver
I use my wrench and my saw and my power drill
And I'll tie it with a bow made out of wire
For the mouse in my toolbox

For the mouse in my toolbox
For the mouse in my toolbox
Bang bang bang
