Suffering and Smiling: Who Will Bell The Cat?
Once upon a time in the land of the rats
There lived a notorious and nefarious cat
Notorious for his daily feasting on innocent and helpless rats
The cat is sure of at least five rats per day to wine on
The rats are grumbling
Humming and murmuring
Their population is dwindling.
Orphans are increasing day by day
All rats with rattled out desire.
Each rat looking unto heaven for saviour
Who will chain the cat?
The Big rats call for a family meeting
All rats sat and talked.
Finally, the way out came out.
To tie a bell around the cat
Will be a way out.
All rats shouted for joy.
Eureka!!!
Everyone was happy and no one was proud.
While doing this, the little Socratic rat kept mute
Thinking inwardly like the people of Athens
Finally, when all was calm like the sea
The little rat spoke like an elderly man giving advice.
He said who will bell the cat?
Who will go for us to put a bell on the neck of the cat?
Who shall we send?
Who will go for us?
All the rats died in their euphoria.
Solution is here
Looking at us
Looking at them
Helplessly staring at us
Helplessly staring at them
Who will bell the cat?
The rats are asking one another
They are never tired of asking
Who will bell the cat?
The notorious cat keeps on feasting on them
While the rats family keep on dying now and then
They are awaiting for saviour
Are you willing?
Will you go for them?
The rats are suffering and smiling
Suffering and smiling
No one wants to die
Who will bell the cat?
