1
There was a dead rat
2
Beneath the windows of my building
3
Of my building, of my building
4
And the children would point sticks at it
5
And poke
6
And when it got itself
7
All frozen-dead the night before
8
While Mr. Jones and Miss Gonzales were out
9
Having a good smoke, having a good smoke
10
Oh, Charlie with the walker
11
Was out thinking in Milwaukee
12
As he downed another thirty-century beer
13
And so he hadn't noted
14
That the cold winds were the closest
15
And so he hadn't noticed
16
That the night was drawing near
17
But what's one less in a world of so many
18
When only mushroom clouds can leave ripples on our souls
19
What's one less?
20
Either way, we got a mess
21
And no one hears the call
22
Anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore
23
There was a dead rat
24
Beneath the windows of my building
25
Of my building, of my building
26
And the children would point sticks at it
27
And poke
28
And when it got itself
29
All frozen-dead the night before
30
While Mr. Jones and Miss Gonzales were out
31
Having a good smoke
32
Having a good smoke
