Lyrics How To Skin A Cat - Hüsker Dü

How To Skin A Cat

We are starting a cat ranch in Lacon with 100,000 cats
Each cat will average 12 kittens a year
The cat skins will sell for 30 cents each
One hundred men can skin 5,000 cats a day
We figure a daily net profit of over $ 10,000.
($ 10,000?)
Now what shall we feed the cats?
We will start a rat farm next door with 1,000,000 rats
The rats breed 12 times faster than the cats
So we will have four rats to feed each day to each cat
Now what shall we feed the rats?
We will feed the rats
The carcasses of the cats
After they have been skinned
Now Get This!
We feed the rats to the cats
And the cats to the rats
And get the cat skins for nothing
We feed the rats to the cats
And the cats to the rats
And get the cat skins for nothing!
We feed the rats to the cats
And the cats to the rats
And get the cat skins for nothing!
We will feed the rats
The carcasses of the cats
After they have been skinned
Now Get This!
We feed the rats to the cats
And the cats to the rats
And get the cat skins for nothing
The rats to the cats
And the cats to the rats
And get the cat skins for nothing
