Mr. T the cat is afraid of rats (it's true!)
For season 665 of the ukulele : The Season Of The Great UU Ark
A few of my friends have been asking me about Mr. T the cat. You know that stray cat who adopted everyone in his neighbourhood?
Since moving to my new location, I have been hearing stories of Mr. T's on-going battle with one particular rat who decided to make my mum's flower pot his home.
It is a relief to hear that he has several people on his side, fighting that one rat.
(I will keep my opinion about his allies' rat-fighting strategies to myself.)
I made this clip inspired by this on-going battle
Words:
There's a big, fat rat
Hiding in our shed
Hiding in our shed
Hiding in our shed!
Is the big, fat rat
Your new adopted pet
Your new adopted pet
Your new adopted pet?
'Cause Mr. T the cat is
Afraid of rats
He is afraid of rats
Afraid of rats!
Is there any way you can
Make the rat to scram
Make the rat to scram
Make the rat to scram?
I ask my papa to
Get rid of the rat
To rid off the rat
To rid off the rat.
But my papa is
Afraid of rats
He's afraid of rats
Afraid of rats.
So he sends for mama
To go and get the rat
To go and get the rat
To go and get the rat.
So mama goes armed with a can of insect spray
A can of insect spray
A can of insect spray.
Mr. T the cat is afraid of rats.
And there's nothing at all
we can do about that.

Wow you're so pretty!
I also like your hair. ❤ But don't the bangs interfere in your vision?
Cute and totally bizarre myth presented in a most amusing way. Big smile on my face listening to this!
Love seeing you two playing together! Spring has sprung where you are, I see! We're having a very stormy Autumn so far. PS Did you notice a little bird was listening to you and didn't fly off till you finished?
Lovely! That Bari sounds gorgeous. Poor puss... But I know where he's coming from... I run a mile when there's a rat in the street! I once stepped on one as it came out of a sewer and I can still feel that awful sensation when I think about it today! It didn't seem injured by my heavy boot on its back for a second. It scurried back down into the sewer immediately, apparently no worse off. I however was haunted by the encounter for weeks, if not months!
Cool song. I have a rat story but I don't think I could turn it into a song, lol.
Love for the cat.
Jon D your face is a picture love you both lol ❤❤❤
Joo your an absolute star love you 😍 💋 ❤️ 💖
❤❤❤
I pitty the rat that takes Mr T for a fool. What an adorable cat! Well played, joo.
😅😅😅😅👍🏻👍🏻
I'd say don't tell the rats but they probably already know. Mr T is cute and looks very contented in his picture. He deserved that little tribute.
This is great. What a joy. I could this turned into a punk rock song too
Thanks Sean! 🌻
Nothing new under the sun Joo :)
😁😅 thanks for stopping by, Jim. A great weekend to you and yours!🧡
@@piekia And yours my friend !
Whoa… thanks for the science lesson! 🤓
You are very welcome, Sir! 🤓
Sheena is a punk rocker. And a slug! An apple a day...
Joo ate a rotting apple one day and the rest is history....
lmao. it's always the apple's fault since time immemorial...
Indeed! Also, that one apple had too much insecticide....
I didn't anticipate the song's ending, joo. I'm wondering if the Ark now requires a 3rd type of lavatory.
🤣🤣🤣 we need to gather our best interior designers for the new lavatory Cody
Wow, brillopads x lots and lots. Great arrangement , and your face Joo ,when you ended that first high note...looked like total relief ,"gods I'm glad that's over "The first falsetto is always the hardest !! Never heard this song before, cracking good work bothyas . Cheers.
Wow. Thank you so much for your comment CeeJay!!! To get that from one of our favourite Seasons people means a lot!!!🧡
Hi joo and Jon. I read all the comments here, and I agree. Sweet playing and singing, pretty setting, and nice folks. Thanks for bringing a horse and dragon to The Great UU Ark.
Thank you so much for the week, Cody!!!
too dang cool!
💜💜💜
You got everything right here, guys - the music, the setting and especially Joo’s vocal, which once again shines in that upper range. A joy from start to finish - and a great way to start my day - thank you both! :-)
Thank you so much Del!!! You are always so kind and supportive. Appreciate you very much. Sending love to you from us both!🧡
Wow, love this version Joo, its beautiful. Way to go!
Thank you so much Linda!!!
Awesome
Thanks so much!
Thanks for a another great one
Thanks so much Sheb!
beautiful staging there in the garden + excellent two-uke arrangement, super vocals! very well done you 2, you spread positive energy!👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks so much for your lovely comment, Wolf!!!🧡
Niiice you two.👏❤The end is👌.
Thanks Tanya!🥰
This is beautiful Joo🤩 Love those higher parts.Beautiful. This is by that guy you really like, hey? I think I remember you telling me that.❤ Hahaha Jon is so funny.😆 “Ohhh me hip, Alice.” 😅 Hope it gets better soon, Jon.😞❤ Such a beautiful setting!!😍 And right at the end the sweet lil blackbird showed up on the fence.😊❤ So cute. Hope you’re having a great day!! xoxo❤
this is too close to perfect. I think the bird was CGI or AI generated. perhaps the whole thing! I don't believe a note or a frame of it!
@ 🤣🤣😂
Your words make me smile. Thank you so much Tanya. You are a sweetheart. I am a bit slow in replying but i think i will be on top of everything from now on. It is such a great spot under the tree, we even get a worm's eye view of birds' bums.😂 The backyard is looking even better today after Jon mowed the lawn. Thanks again!❤️ talk again soon!
CGI- Chilling in Green Imagery. 😅 (i have no hope in writing and wit.) Thanks Chris! All the best to the move! 🧡
Two beautiful humans in a beautiful garden playing a beautiful song! I couldn't possibly love this more than I do.
Thank you so much Bobby!!! 🧡
Bravissimi👏👏👏
Thank you!
You two are so lucky to share the ukulele! 🧡
It is awesome to be able to play music together! Thanks Marcia! 🧡
Wow joo so beautifully sang ❤🎉😊
Thanks so much Susan!🧡
That was EXTREMELY entertaining. It's fun to watch happy and silly/wacky people. I loved it. Jon/Joo, thanks for that.
Yay!!! Made us both so happy you enjoyed it! 🥰
Thank you!!!
That was cute and fun and a great reminder how much we are the same. That was nice, Joo!
Thank you Chris! So happy you got the message.
Thanks for that Jon & Joo. I had almost as much fun as you guys did. . .and you snuck in another "Yes Sir, That's My Baby."
Thanks Jim! So happy you enjoyed! You are the best! ❤️
Thank you for the smiles. Mine and yours! By the way, how do you pronounce your channel name? 💜💜
So sorry Marcia i've gotten behind on my replies! Thanks for smiling with us! My channel is pronounced Pie Kee-ah. ( it means "bad child" or "thug" in my Chinese Dialect😅. I chose the name because i had then just passed by a shop in Singapore called Pie Kia which sold pies! 😋)
Sweet duo! 💜
Thanks Marcia!🥰 Have you checked out the Chinese erhu link i shared?
Enjoyed that so much. Thanks for posting. Peace
Thanks so much Sheb! Glad you enjoyed!
Always brighten up my day's.... you both have sunshine in your hearts 💕 💞 ♥️
So happy to read that, Susan. Thank you! Much love to you from both of us!❤️
Love it!! Very creative! 🩷 Any plans for the rocks you found? I was thinking maybe you would use them in your gardens somehow.😊 Hope your day is going well, Joo. See you around.😊❤
thanks so much, Tanya. :--D I thought of painting on a few of them, but they are beautiful the way they are. Realised I had picked enough to use them as a sort of relaxing game - just arranging them in ways that make the edges and space around each one look and flow harmoniously. I was doing that and it felt very nice. A little meditative exercise. I can and might place them around our little succulent bed, the same one you saw in one of Jon's latest video where he was sitting on the step playing a Darren Hanlon song. Hope you and your sisters have a good Friday and weekend! <3
@@piekia Ooo painting them, yes. Have you ever heard of the painted rock hide-and-seek game? Something about people painting rocks with images or sometimes just a positive message on it and leaving it out in nature somewhere for someone else to find and enjoy. Usually there’s info left on it like maybe a website to check out and kind of track where it’s been and stuff. But then when someone finds it, they place it in a different spot for another person to find.😊 It’s a pretty neat idea, I think. Just leaving a sweet, random gift/message for someone to come across and brighten their day for a moment.😊 I think it really started during lockdown when everyone was so secluded-to try and keep people’s spirits lifted a little. The other things you mentioned sound really nice too. The video sure is cool with them re-arranged all different ways. And I especially like the rock that’s the color of my nana’s hair.😊 That’s what we called my grandma on my dad’s side-‘Nana and Grandpa’.😊 And on my mom’s side we called her ‘Grandma Michigan’. (My mom’s dad passed away when she was a little girl so we didn’t really have a certain name for him. Grandpa, i suppose..But he has a very special place in our hearts, that’s for sure.)😊❤
this is absolutely brilliant! so much fun, life affirming. agree w/ Sheb, your creativity and sideways slant on life is amazing Joo. smiles for miles here! xo
You are very kind and encouraging Jona. Thanks so much. <3
Och Aye :)
Thanks for watching, Jim!
You so creative. I think the Blondie song "Rapture" would fit that verse. Thanks for posting
Thanks so much Sheb!
