Lyrics for “A little Song of Rodents”
written by Rosa Whitby. Ukulele accompaniment written by Christopher Whitby. 

Wood mouse, brown rat, four toed jerboa,
Botta’s pocket gopher, and eastern chipmunk,
Grey squirrel, marmot, American beaver,
Agouti, Mara, guinea pig and capybara!

I once found a capybara in my shed,
I took it in, and now it’s in my bed!

Wood mouse, brown rat, four toed jerboa,
Botta’s pocket gopher, and eastern chipmunk,
Grey squirrel, marmot, American beaver,
Agouti, Mara, guinea pig and capybara!

I once found a capybara stuck in a tree,
I got it down, and now it’s free!

Wood mouse, brown rat, four toed jerboa,
Botta’s pocket gopher, and eastern chipmunk,
Grey squirrel, marmot, American beaver,
Agouti, Mara, guinea pig and capybara!
(Final chorus x3)
