"Rats" lyrics

When the rats run out of the building
When the rats run out of the building
When the rats run out of the building
The building's gonna fall

When the building falls, when the building
When the building falls, when the building
When the building falls, when the building
The man paves over the rats

And the rats all scream with the blood on their cheeks
And they run around scared on the fresh concrete
And the maze gets tall but the rent goes cheap
And the man gets fat while the rats don't eat
And the man builds up the building
And the man builds up the building
And the man builds up the building again

Then the rats get mean and hungry
When the rats get mean and hungry
The man buys up the guns
And he sells them to the rats

Then the rats all kill each other
Then the rats all kill each other
When the rats all kill each other
The man sits back and laughs
Ha ha ha ha, ha ha ha ha, ha ha ha

And the rats all scream with the blood on their cheeks
And they run around scared on the fresh concrete
And the maze gets tall but the rent goes cheap
And the man gets fat while the rats don't eat
And the man builds up the building
And the man builds up the building
And the man builds up the building again

And the strong rats get killed
And the weak rats get killed
And the rich rats get killed
And the poor rats get killed
And the cowards don't die
Cause the man saves their lives

And the man builds up the building
And the man builds up the building
And the man builds up the building again
