Rat

Not too smart, just out of school

A teachers pet and modern fool

Talked about being a freelance broker

But the police caught him tryin' to choke herCan't describe him in his corner, no, no

Like a rat out of the water, out of work and out of grass

Mother Mary never seems to stop to talk, she just walked on past

Down down, no information, one day always, awayAnd why, why, can't I see you

One day always away

And why, why, can't I be you

One day always awayHe's out of school now, just another taken barstool

And this neighborhood ain't what he had in mind, no, no

Wants to be your girlfriend and wants to be your boyfriend

Wants to be your telephone, wants to, wants to be your own man
