Lyrics
Rats
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
In times of turmoil
In times like these
Beliefs contagious
Spreading disease
This wretched mischief
Is now coursing through your souls
Never to let go
Never to let go
Them rats!
Into your sanctum
You let them in
Now all your loved ones
And all your kin
Will suffer punishments
Beneath the wrath of God
Never to forgive
Never to forgive
Them rats!
Rats!
Rats!
Rats!
This devastation
Left your cities to be burnt
Never to return
Never to return
Them filthy rodents
Are still coming for your souls
Never to let go
Never to let go
Them rats!
Rats!
Rats!
Rats!
They're still coming after you (rats)
And there's nothing you can do (rats)
They're still coming after you (rats)
And there's nothing you can do (rats)
Rats!
