Twelfth Night - Counterpoint lyrics

Rat, rat, rat Bourgeois interest dressed vultures Who s** like leeches Scratching and teething Egos check cheques in transit Rank oppositions headline collisions Rat eat rat, snap their backs, raise to play, counterpoint Rat eat rat, rat bite back, raise the stakes, counterpoint Ambitious cronies Lay gra** on Judas "et tu Brutus" Disease, wade in the slurry If cash won't clench it Then take it dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty Rat eat rat - spit and scratch - face to face - counterpoint Rat eat rat - snitch and snatch - braced to face - counterpoint Rat eat rat - snap their backs - raise to play - counterpoint Rat eat rat - rat bite back - raise the stakes - counterpoint La la la la La la la la Modus operandi Contrary motives, modus vivendi Hands tied, estranged allegiance Trained in psychosis Drowned in plutocracy Come see, comme ca, come... Rat eat rat - rack their stacks - switch their tracks - counterpoint Rat eat rat - stitch and hatch - tricks and traps - counterpoint Rat eat rat - spit and scratch - face to face - counterpoint Rat eat rat - snitch and snatch - braced to face - counterpoint Rat eat rat - snap their backs - raise to play - counterpoint Rat eat rat - rat bite back - raise the stakes - counterpoint
