Kill The 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.
You see them all day roll away
They spin in the darkness the blind man's game
Wave to the trains
Those old broken windows
The morning is cold in the sun
Tearing and wearing the stoney ground
Nothing's left
But shells by the numbers
Kiss the cats
Squeeze the bats
Kiss the cat
But kill the rats
Kill, kill, kill the rats, kill, kill, kill the rats
Can we aford not to worry
Fight for the money long nights of fear
Bang shoot go on
Oh sweet sugared darnling
The coin in the well never helps
For nothing but keeping the hopes alive
Sunken dreams
Keep us afloat
Kiss the cats
Squeeze the bats
Kiss the cat
But kill the rats
Kill, kill, kill the rats, kill, kill, kill the rats
There's more in the can so pray now
Blue today but tomorrow all brown
So who can tell
Where this train is leaving
Kiss the cats
Squeeze the bats
Kiss the cat
But kill the rats
Kill, kill, kill the rats, kill, kill, kill the rats
