ruth crawford seeger - rat riddles lyrics

Loading...

there was a gray rat looked at me with
green eyes out of a rathole
“h+llo, rat,” i said
“is there any chance for me
to get on to the language of the rats?”
and the green eyes blinked at me
blinked from a gray rat’s rathole
“come again,” i said
“slip me a couple of riddles;
there must be riddles among the rats.”
and the green eyes blinked at me
and whisper came from the grey rathole:
“who do you think you are and why is a rat!
where did you sleep last night and why do
you sneeze on tuesdays?
and why is the grave of a rat no deeper
than the grave of a man?”
and the tail of a green+eyed rat
whipped and was gone at a gray rathole
