Kill the rats!, Please kill the rats!
Or we won't survive this day
Kill the rats!, Please kill the rats!
Their cannibalism is not endearing
Teeth sinking in to unmarked flesh
Staining blood on your only dress
Kill the rats!, Please kill the rats!
Their cannibalism is not endearing
Kill the rats!, Please ill the rats!
Eating my flesh to the bone
Kill the rats!, Please kill the rats!
Eating my flesh to the bone
Open wounds, left unsewn
Disease ridden flesh, i'm all alone
Kill the rats!, Please kill the rats!
Eating my flesh to the bone
Kill the rats!, Please kill the rats!
Their eyes shine so brightly
Kill the rats!, Please kill the rats!
Their eyes shine so brightly
Digesting my eyes, so I cannot see
Wo't someone please save me?
Kill the rats!, Please kill the rats!
Their eyes shine so brightly
Kill the rats!, Please kill the rats!
Their gone now, but they'll come back
Kill the rats!, Please kill the rats!
Their gone now, but they'll come back
Leaving flesh in a stack
Coming time after time for the flesh they lack
Kill the rats!, Please kill the rats!
Their gone now, but they'll come back
