Great song! Second favorite to Mineshafts. Good job on the lyrics, it's definitely hard to hear sometimes. The only true part I can fix is the line that says, "The mice are beginning to 'scatter'". In the first Mariel verse I think she says devils instead of downfalls but it's too hard to tell. The only other spot that I don't think is right is in the last verse. You have, I wasted size. But I don't think that makes sense and I'm certain they say something else. Other than that real nice work on sometimes difficult to hear lyrics.
As for the meaning, it sounds like a confession to his wife. What's I like the most about this song is they do this through using Redwall characters, Mariel and Martin. In my mind I can picture little rat like characters singing this songs. It's a rather funny image.
