SEWING YOU SAY?

I see that you’re thinking of doing some sewing.
Now just how does that include me?
At least there’s a lap to curl up on,
when you’re sitting down watching T.V.

But that awful machine you’re so fond of –
makes such a horrible noise!
And you don’t let me play with your buttons and thread.
(You keep telling me they’re not my toys!)

So you’re thinking of doing some sewing today?
Well, I’m sure I can sabotage that!
'cause I know you’re too much of a “softie”,
to think of disturbing a cat!
