Rat Patrol
Go in with dynamite and blow up the nest
Wait with a shotgun to shotgun the rest
Up against the mountains bash their brains on the rocks
Then freeze ‘em in the winter, in the spring let ‘em rot
Who you gonna get to get ‘em under control?
Somebody, anybody call up the rat patrol
Take off their heads, feed ‘em poison till they choke
Catch ‘em in a trap so their necks get broke
Starve ‘em in a bucket so they eat each other up
And then whack ‘em with a shovel and flatten out their guts
Who you gonna get to get 'em under control?
Somebody, anybody call up the rat patrol
Rat patrol, rat patrol
Rat patrol, drag ‘em outta their holes
(Rat patrol, rat patrol)
(Rat patrol, they're filthy, you know)
The rats are gonna roll right out of control
If nobody calls up the, calls up the rat patrol
It ain't New York, it ain't Baltimore
It ain't some port city where they might come ashore
We tolerate the badger, the big mountain cat
And the grizzly and the rattler, but we don't like rats
Who you gonna get to get 'em under control?
Somebody, anybody call up the rat patrol
We got rat free status province wide
And protectin’ it's a point of provincial pride
But if you're telling me we get to send ‘em all straight to hell
Goddamn I might have to just join up myself
Who you gonna get to get 'em under control?
Somebody, anybody call up the rat patrol
Rat patrol, rat patrol
Rat patrol, drag ‘em outta their holes
(Rat patrol, rat patrol)
(Rat patrol, they're filthy, you know)
The rats are gonna roll right out of control
If nobody calls up the, calls up the rat patrol
Mm-hmm. Now's the time I'd imagine that the soft hearted and the weak minded will come forward to profess their love for the rat. A noble creature, they'll say, misunderstood. Disadvantaged. Well, I guess they have a right to their opinion. As for me, I ain’t buying it. So in the meantime and in between time, somebody, anybody call up the rat patrol
Rat patrol, rat patrol
Rat patrol, drag ‘em outta their holes
(Rat patrol, rat patrol)
(Rat patrol, they're filthy, you know)
The rats are gonna roll right out of control
If nobody calls up the, calls up the rat patrol
