A (half-baked) story of robbery, blackmail and murder!

In a gingerbread house,
Lived a man and his spouse.
They had a dog and three cats,
And also a huge resident rat.

One day the rat ate the doors,
Windows, carpets, and more.
So then the man and woman got quite angry,
"It treats our house like it's made out of candy!"

They asked the cats to give pursuit,
But the three of them kept mute.
For the rat had long made a pact,
With the dog, were the cats to act.

If he didn't keep them at bay,
The rat would have something to say.
About what the dog did last summer,
To the neighborhood mail runner.

He bit off the head of the gingerbread man,
(Who happened to be the local postman),
And stuffed his body into tin foil,
Put him in the oven and set it to broil!
