LOOK AT THAT
When at last even the Nutcracker is asleep, the Mouse Queen, as Coffee, turns to retrieve Krakatuk, to kill them all.  
But she spies the chocolates and she can't resist.  One
by one the Queen as Coffee eats each piece, until she is
under the trap and when she takes the bait, the Mouse
Trap is set in motion, the ball rolls, the cane swings,
and the basket drops!
The Mouse Queen is trapped. The shock breaks the spell and the she snaps back into her humongous form and fills Mother Ginger’s hoop skirt like an overstuff pillow.    
The crash wakes the nearest SWEETIES and starts a chain
reaction!
SWEETIES
LOOK AT THAT! LOOK AT THAT!  
GET OUT OF BED YOU SLEEPY HEAD.  
GET OUT OF BED! WAKE UP, WAKE UP!  
LOOK! LOOK AT THAT! SHE TOOK THE BAIT!
 LOOK! LOOK AT THAT! SHE MET HER FATE!  
GET OUT OF BED, YOU SLEEPY HEAD.  
GET OUT OF BED, WAKE UP, WAKE UP!  
LOOK! LOOK AT THAT! THE MOUSE IS TRAPPED!  
LOOK. GOT A RAT! WE TRAPPED A RAT!   OHBOYOHBOYOHBOYOHBOYOHBOYOHBOYOHBOY!   WAKE UP! WAKE UP!
