Ah! Ya too rude

Oh, what a rat race

Oh, what a rat race

Oh, What a rat race

This is the rat race

Rat race, rat race

Some a lawful, some a bastard, some a jacket

Oh, what a rat race, rat race

Some a gorgan, some a hooligan, some a guine-gog

In this rat race, yeah!

Rat race

I'm singing

When the cats away

The mice will play

Political violence fill ya city

Yea-ah!

Don't involve Rasta in your say, say

Rasta don't work for no CIA

Rat race, rat race, rat race

When you think is peace and safety

A sudden destruction

Collective security for surety

Yeah!

Don't forget your history

Know your destiny

In the abundance of water

The fool is thirsty

Rat race, rat race, rat race

Oh, it's a disgrace to see the

Human-race in a rat race, rat race

You got the horse race

You got the dog race

You got the human-race

But this is a rat race, rat race
