Three Blind Mice on Vacation in Africa was written for "The Wooleycat's Favorite Nursery Rhymes" CD. Dennis and Christine took the old traditional East Indian story about
the seven blind men and the elephant and wove in nursery rhyme characters. The story deals with perception and assumptions. In the end, we are all more than the sum of our parts!
Goldilocks Knocks*
Goldilocks Knocks was in the top 10 most requested children's songs on Radio Ahhs for a couple of years.
Mmm Berry Pie
Dennis has a weakness for Berry Pie. That and the notion that most spiders are harmless created the perfect inspiration for this song.

Three Blind Mice on Vacation in Africa
Three blind mice on vacation in Africa
Bumped into a great big elephant.
What can this be? Lets inspect it and see!
Said the three blind mice.
(chorus)
Ears and nose, tell me what you see .
Knees and toes, theres a whole lot more to me! .
Toes and knees, hips and shoulders too.
Nose and ears, there's a whole lot more to you!
The second blind mouse pulled the elephants ear...
Goldilocks Knocks*
Three bears out for a walk one day
A little girl visits wanting to play
She rings the bell she shouts she knocks
She opens the door "It's Goldilocks!"
She runs to the table where she sees three plates
Each one's piled with bacon and eggs
Ouch! she cries, as she takes a bite
Mama's hot, Papa's cold, Baby's just right
When Goldilocks knocks, Hide your socks
When Goldilocks knocks better lock all the locks
If you're out on a walk
when Goldilocks knocks
Leave a note on the mailbox "Go away Goldilocks!"
Mmm Berry Pie
That spider was an itty bitty baker
With a twinkle in his eye
He only came down to borrow some sugar
To sweeten his berry pie!
Mmm Berry Pie, Mmmm Berry Pie
Put it in the oven and it comes out hot
Can't get enough of that Mmm Berry Pie
Mm Mm Thanks a lot!
Hey hey, little miss muffet...
Gimme a Little Kiss

But there's one thing that I ask

My one and only wish is gmme a little kiss

So please princess, Gimme a little kiss...
