Rats Assembly |
A makeshift parlour game |
Of treachery and shame |
A nest of sin and vice |
Informant’s paradise |
All ears and all the same |
The rat’s assembly line |
We work in shifts then rest |
Our ears are always fresh |
For every bird a song |
Sure as your life is long |
A bird for every jail |
For every rat his tale |
Some friends of yours we met |
Have echoed our request |
The table has been set |
And you’re the honored guest |
Article 128 could hardly be more clear |
By order of the council you are always welcome here |
You remind me of the wine |
Not running out tonight |
No need to check the time |
No difference day or night |
Judgment has her kiln and justice her baton |
The people have their will and truth her blindfold on |
Article 128 could hardly be more clear |
By order of the council you are always welcome here |
Windows are nothing but glass, so easily shattered |
Shutters are nothing but wood, so easily cut |
Walls are but plaster and lath, no match for a hammer |
Spirits are nothing but fires, so easily snuffed |
All ears and all the time |
The rat’s assembly line |
We work in shifts then rest |
Our ears are always fresh |
Some friends of yours we met |
Have echoed our request |
The table has been set |
And you’re the honored guest |
Article 128 could hardly be more clear |
By order of the council you are always welcomed here |
Long as you’re still breathing you can sign the questionnaire |
Surely your rendition will be more extraordinaire |
