Bill Bailey dedicates a song to Rats
Rats! Rats! Will you forgive us for treating your brethren so cruelly
Rats! Rats! Please will you give us a sign to say you’ll leave us be
You scurry through cellar and Lofoten Green Gables
You gnaw at my conscience and you gnaw through my … cables
You brought us typhus and bubonic plague
But you’re still more welcome than William Hague
Rats! Rats! Our closest companions
Scurrying beneath us with hate in your eyes
Rats! Rats! In these urban canyons
Our fates are entwined like Chaka Demus and Pliers
Twangggg
