A rat1, a case of above the ordinary
He didn't burn2, remained a weekender3
For that reason, he was on one4
Don't you back down, rat, rise and shine!
He'd say that the loves are out of whole cloth all the while
I wouldn't be afraid of their games
He'd go to last at any moment
Don't you go, rat, rise and shine!
Don't stay on the leading edge, rat, they'd lead you to a dance too
Some people do exist, rat, they'd torture you to dead
Don't fret about it, rat, they'd await the arrival of you
Never blow off5, rat, they'd set a match to you as well
Don't you tag along behind the porkies6, rat
Is it that easy?
Don't you adjourn to the garden of the wild
This is what makes you who you are...
