Rat city, pretty shitty
Razor blade in the palm of your hand
The palm goes up and you're on the ground
In rat city
It ain't pretty
It's pretty shitty
Snipers on the post office door
Just waiting for their model hour?
Feeling hungry, feeling bad
Go make yourself another kabob?
I know, you know, I got to get out of this place. I got to get out of rat city, you know, because every face is the same. It's going on the choop? to work. Just getting out and going into my own business and sitting around there and. All I ever do is get a load of the crap below? me and the only pleasure I get is watching my secretary's legs, you know. And what do I do? I get out, I put on my coat, I walk out, and I started to drink. Then I find myself getting so pissed that, I just don't know what to do, so I, I walk out and, walk to ? Street, and I thought I'd slip into one of those 3D sex cinemas. There's nothing on but a load of shit. I've got Swedish porn movies, and everything in it - it just doesn't work for me, you know, because it ain't real. It's like rat city, it's so bad, I can't ? in it. I got to get home. I got to get home. But I'm so pissed I can't. Should I go home to a wife that's, "Hey, where the hell have you been?" I said, "I... I..." And she said, "Well, your tea's ready, and it's fish fingers again." You know I'm not going to stand? fish fingers. So I eat them, and I, I have a couple of glasses of beer again, and I watch TV. But there's nothing on except "Police Woman". Oh, it's so shitty. And all I do is walk around all day.
It makes you feel shitty
Because it's me
It's not pretty in rat city
Na na na na na na
It's beginning, to, and back again.
