Itty bitty Cheshire Kitty

Think your smiles are oh so witty

And that skirts are very pretty

On a lovely little lass

Ratty tatty little catty

Call yourself so very batty

While you are so nice and chatty

Does she think your comments crass?

Alice, Alice, filled with malice

Can't you take a joke, my love?

And maybe let me hold your glove?

Or hand beneath, oh graceful dove?

Mean, keen, so obscene

Monstrous kit with eyes of green

Against my shoulder, stop to lean

Or else I shall give you a shove

So cruel, my heart!

So sharp, your claws!

So harsh, sweet tart!

So wide, your jaws!

So soft, your fur

Like silk, your hair

And sweet, your purr

That voice, so fair

Itty bitty Cheshire Kitty

Alice loves those smiles so witty

You find skirts, now not so pretty

When, without her, line the floor.
