We Know the Rats
Could've happened to anyone
They came in through the back room
Boarded up, but they came again
We know the rats
Call the cops, see what they do
Scam calls to the wrong address
Clever pigs never getting stressed
Yeah, we know the rats
These thieves have you sleeping rough
Baseball bat Dmitri Young
So your mind harries bigger ones
We know the rats
We know the rats
Yeah, it might take some time
Maybe Gadarene
We have our ways to snare them
They steal your hours
Rob you for your wage
Then make you bow and scrape
Avarice forever
Did the Christ feel bad
For the gibbering swine
He threw those demons in?
I doubt he bats an eyelid
We know the rats
See their decadence
The spite they hide
A tattered rag of piety
We know the rats
Their cankered wealth
When they weep and howl
Then we'll know them better
So collect those tears
And wash your face
The house is empty
But the work remains
So collect those tears
And wash your face
The house is empty
But the work remains
So collect those tears
And wash your face
The house is empty
But the work remains
So collect those tears
And wash your face
The house is empty
They came in through the back room
Boarded up, but they came again
We know the rats
Call the cops, see what they do
Scam calls to the wrong address
Clever pigs never getting stressed
Yeah, we know the rats
These thieves have you sleeping rough
Baseball bat Dmitri Young
So your mind harries bigger ones
We know the rats
We know the rats
Yeah, it might take some time
Maybe Gadarene
We have our ways to snare them
They steal your hours
Rob you for your wage
Then make you bow and scrape
Avarice forever
Did the Christ feel bad
For the gibbering swine
He threw those demons in?
I doubt he bats an eyelid
We know the rats
See their decadence
The spite they hide
A tattered rag of piety
We know the rats
Their cankered wealth
When they weep and howl
Then we'll know them better
So collect those tears
And wash your face
The house is empty
But the work remains
So collect those tears
And wash your face
The house is empty
But the work remains
So collect those tears
And wash your face
The house is empty
But the work remains
So collect those tears
And wash your face
The house is empty
