Caged Rat
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.
Why don't you go home and crawl into your hole
Why don't you go home and spend some time alone
In the corner I looked across the room
To the other corner, I knew I'd be there soon
Caged rat (x12)
In the corner I looked across the room
I knew I'd be there soon, in the (other) corner
Caged rat (x12)
Why don't you go home and crawl into your hole
Why don't you go home and spend some time alone
From the corner I looked across the room
To the other corner, I knew I'd be there soon
Caged rat (x12)
