Emerald Rose - Dance Of The Rats lyrics

I awoke one night with nature's call Out of the bedroom and into the hall Looked in the kitchen, still half asleep My gut clenched in terror, icy and sharp Twenty some rats were out on the floor Four on the table, and two by the door I stared in shock while they struck up the band Formed into lines at their caller's command Round and round, the rats they danced On tiny feet they leapt and pranced With rodent grace and vermin sk** The dance of the rats - what a thrill! They wore little hats and wee little shoes Greatcoats and dresses of green and blue They waltzed and tangoed and polkaed with glee Lost in their revels, they quite ignored me Up on the table were musicians four With soul and with sk** they commanded the floor With tiny guitars and a fiddle so small It could only be played at a Rodentia ball Round and round, the rats they danced On tiny feet they leapt and pranced With rodent grace and vermin sk** The dance of the rats - what a thrill! The dance of the rats The dance of the rats The dance of the rats I woke with a start, no music was playin' Ran to my kitchen, a-gaspin' and praying No rats there to greet me, but amongst all the clutter Was a tiny gla** slipper right next to the bu*ter Round and round, the rats they danced On tiny feet they leapt and pranced With rodent grace and vermin sk** The dance of the rats Round and round, the rats they danced On tiny feet they leapt and pranced With rodent grace and vermin sk** The dance of the rats - what a thrill!
