Even Rats

Even the rats know that
Trouble's gonna come
To the edge of the city
See the little guys run
I hear spring is nice in Canada
Maybe the men up
On Capitol Hill
Need a little less Jack
And a little more Jill
You can have my stereo

Even though the race
May never be won
I can lay like a dandy
Getting heavy in the sun
Take a love song and beautify
Woah, woah, woah

I hear the words but
The meaning gets lost
It's a game, it depends on
Who the ball gets tossed
It's the same ball anyway
You're tugging me now
Cut me lose or take me on
You can pray, you can play
The piper all night long
That's some good home cooking

Even though the race
May never be won
I can lay like a dandy
Getting heavy in the sun
Take a love song and beautify
Woah, woah, woah
