《Rough On Rats》歌词

[00:00:00] Rough On Rats - David Johansen

[00:00:16] Your crawfish fingers and your dirty dregs

[00:00:20] Your sideways stingers and your wooden legs

[00:00:24] They're throwing out jewels like rotten eggs

[00:00:28] Cause it's Christmas in Siam

[00:00:30] And we're rough on rats

[00:00:40] Your scarecrow spiders and your shipwreck bones

[00:00:44] The fossilized bibles of Geronimo Jones

[00:00:48] His star spangled army in their roadhouse clothes

[00:00:51] Cause a hero can't bronze his soul

[00:00:54] And we're rough on rats

[00:00:59] There's shattered glass on the dance floor

[00:01:03] A cop chaperoning a doll

[00:01:08] The testament of a landlord

[00:01:11] Who's living in a hollow log

[00:01:15] Yeah

[00:01:33] The burlap flowers and the cocaine dirt

[00:01:37] The horn of plenty in a desert of hurt

[00:01:41] The corduroy boy in the killjoy shirt

[00:01:44] He's a stereotype on ice

[00:01:47] And we're rough on rats

[00:01:52] So what do you think you could take from the heap

[00:01:56] Where the haystack needles are piled up cheap

[00:02:00] You can buy what's useless and steal what you need

[00:02:04] In the pink penitentiary

[00:02:07] And we're rough on rats
