Rat Race - Live At The Pavillon De Paris, 1977
Oh, what a rat race
Oh, what a rat race
Oh, what a rat race
This is the rat race, rat race
Some are lawful
Some are bastard
Some are jacket
Oh, what a rat race
Rat race
Some are gorgon
Some are hooligan
Some are guinea-gog
In this here rat race, yeah
Rat race
I'm saying
When the cat's away, the mice will play
Political violence fill your cities, yeah
Don't involve Rasta in your say-say
I'm saying, Rasta don't work for no C.I.A.
Rat race
Rat race
Rat race, yeah
Rat race
I'm saying
When you think it's peace and safety
A sudden destruction
Collective security, for surety, yeah
Don't forget your history
Or your destiny
In the abundance of water, the fool is thirsty
Rat race
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
Some are chicken
Some are scratch it
Some are bunch it
Some are bastard
In this here rat race
Rat race
Oh, what a rat race
Oh, what a rat race
This is the rat race, rat race
Some are lawful
Some are bastard
Some are jacket
Oh, what a rat race
Rat race
Some are gorgon
Some are hooligan
Some are guinea-gog
In this here rat race, yeah
Rat race
I'm saying
When the cat's away, the mice will play
Political violence fill your cities, yeah
Don't involve Rasta in your say-say
I'm saying, Rasta don't work for no C.I.A.
Rat race
Rat race
Rat race, yeah
Rat race
I'm saying
When you think it's peace and safety
A sudden destruction
Collective security, for surety, yeah
Don't forget your history
Or your destiny
In the abundance of water, the fool is thirsty
Rat race
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
Some are chicken
Some are scratch it
Some are bunch it
Some are bastard
In this here rat race
Rat race
