Oh little town of Tenby!
On the western coast of Wales!
Town everyone did envy
For its beachy hills and dales
Its strands so nice and sandy
Its waves so wild and free
Its seals so fun and randy, its porpoises so dandy!
It was a place where tourists loved to be.
********************************
Then rats as big as kittens
Or well – let’s face it – cats
Decided to be smitten
With its cliffsides and its flats.
They love to run about and mate
Inside the cliffside holes
They propagate and propagate.
They’ve taken quite a toll.
***********************
The cliffs are all eroding
The townsfolk stupefied
The signs are all forboding…
It’s time for raticide!
