Rats
Lyrics by M. Lacombe & P. Sailin Cutler

The rats marched on
Not afraid of us
For the death of their pups and their dams
They swore revenge

They came to a halt
The warren was found
Called out to the rabbits
For they knew their hate was strong

Now they crawl through our walls
Like the roaches in the city
With their eyes blacked out
And with a plan that would
Burn us to the ground

They had it all
Then we snared to feast
For the rats warfarin
And for that they set out to kill

We had to face
Their advance on us
The rush

All the rats and dirty rabbits
Now an army waging war
In the name of all their fallen kits and pups and dams
And all the rest of their families
That is their reality
