THE RAT MAN
well, i stopped to tell you that i am alright,
but you said “goodnight” and i terrorized
down to my last lucky strike.
whatever i said it was lies.
whatever i did you can do to me.
i am unhappy with you out of my life
if i could look deep into your eyes
when you were smiling at that other guy, i’d say (oh, I’d say):
“if you feel unloved, my love, we all feel unloved.”
Really? Alright! OK!
well, i was standing on my front porch
when you flashed on your brights and the tail-lights
disappeared into the night.
whatever you wanted to say (SAY IT!)
whatever you wanted to do to me (DO IT!)
well, i am happy with you out of my life
if i could look deep into your eyes
when you were smiling at that other guy, i’d say (oh, I’d say):
“if you feel unloved, my love, we all feel unloved.”
Baby, I’m the RAT MAN. I’m not a rat, man.
And if you wait and see, something good’s comin’ up for you in spite of me.
Baby, I’m the RAT MAN. I’m not a rat, man.
Mischief equals currency, and there’s a rat crawlin’ up and down inside of me.
Baby, I’m the RAT MAN. I’m not a rat, man.
So stay away. So stay away. So stay away.
