[Verse 1] Forty years and counting, still we’re side by side, chalk and cheese in the pantry, still we share the ride. Mouse says, “That’ll fail, now,” Piglet says, “Let’s try,” one of us begins at once, one asks, “Why, why, why?” [Pre-Chorus] He starts with the warning, I start at the end, we both mean something else, dear, then we try again. “Where do you begin it?” “From the part that fits!” “Which part?” “The whole bloomin’ thing!” “Oh, now it clicks, that’s it!” [Chorus] Mouse and Piglet! Mind the tape! Mouse and Piglet! Same old shape! One says “wait,” one says “go,” laugh, then measure, off we go! [Verse 2] Tiles for the hallway, eighteen metres wide, somehow read as one point eight, Lord, we nearly cried! After that we checked it, both with eyes and hands, decimal in the middle can wreck your noble plans. The pipe on the AC kinked to fit the desk, shelves went up together, now the room looks blessed. Neurodivergent, directional, we’re a comic scene, half-made plans and caution signs and bits of in-between. [Pre-Chorus] He says, “This will backfire.” I say, “Not today.” He points to the corner, I point to the way. “Explain from the beginning,” “Tell me what you mean.” “Measure twice, then do it.” “Aye, we make a team.” [Chorus] Mouse and Piglet! Mind the tape! Mouse and Piglet! Same old shape! One says “wait,” one says “go,” laugh, then measure, off we go! [Bridge] He’s the clarinet doing careful lines, I’m the banjo bouncing out of bounds sometimes. But when we trade our meanings, something sweet appears: a little house of laughter built across the years. [Final Chorus] Mouse and Piglet! Mind the tape! Mouse and Piglet! Same old shape! One says “wait,” one says “go,” laugh, then measure, off we go! Mouse and Piglet! We know the code! Mouse and Piglet! Love does the load!
