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.
