Soapy Cooper - I'm A Rat lyrics

I am a rat Because I'm worthless Small, with no purpose Dirty on the surface Rough hands to work with I got a life made of trash While I live off the scraps Try and chase the cheese Has got me stuck in the mouse traps Get too close, the bar snaps I preach against cats You may say my mind is backwards Cause I reach for the rats I am a rat But fat cats grow lazy And send pigs to chase me Hold me down and mace me Beat my up and taze me Yet I'm the one who's crazy INSANE Someone better strap me to my bed frame Doctors playing head games Finding thoughts the meds drain Leave me with a dead brain But a soul like a red flame As time flies by My tale grows longer Ever expanding The more things I conquer I drag it behind me, as I grow stronger I'm a rat Cause all I want is that cheese Since I was a kid Stuck chasing a dream That's fake like cheese whiz Like balls off a bat We're all over the place I feel like I'm more in the rat Than the human race I choose my fate But feel myself losing grace When I can't wait To get to the food on my plate
