ben below - city of rats lyrics

Loading...

under the city, in darkness they lurk
they live in the dark, and the damp, and the murk
for so long they’ve sat back, been baited and trapped
they once roamed the surface, and they, want it back

rats! (rats! rats! rats..)
they’re under your floorboards
rats! (rats! rats! rats..)
they live in your street

(rats, rats)
weather porpoise or lords
rats! (rats! rats..)
right under your feet
one at a time, and they’re harmless… enough
when they come in packs then it starts to get tough
but when all movers won they can tear flesh from bones
the threat rose and drove people out, of our homes

and so they came, and we left
like rats fleeing a sinking ship, or so the saying goes
but in this case
the rats were definitely not the ones doing the fleeing

the disease, the violence, it all became too much
as family after family fled for safer passage’s
the most stubborn tried to stay of course
but, none lasted

every nook, every cranny
every shop, every building
all over+run
and so became the city of the rats
