The physical release is a picture disc featuring the “I’m a Rat” cover art on side A, and a photograph of beloved founding member Akira Tsuneoka on side B. This was the last song that Tsune played on before his recent untimely passing. The picture disc is a small tribute to Tsune’s immortal spirit,...
I'm a rat in a trap
And I'm happy about that
Because everyone believes that I was caught
Now they feel so good about themselves 'cause they liked to watch me suffer
Until they found it in their hearts to help me out
So I thanked them and apologized for all my bad behavior
I blamed it on my addiction to cheese
Now everybody likes me and thinks I'm rehabilitated
And I finally get to do what the fuck I please
I'm a rat and I don't wanna hear your sermon, I'm a vermin
And I'm always gonna gnaw on things I know will aggravate you
I'm a rat acting likе a good doer till I go back to my sewer
And ingеst my chosen poisons
I'm a rat (ah), I'm a rat (ah)
I'm a rat (ah), I'm a rat
And I put myself in that trap
'Cause I'm a rat who won't race your human races
I don't want the pole position, I won't live a competition
I'm a rat who figured out how to win without anybody losing
Or at least not ever knowin'
They were beaten
'Cause I'm a rat
I'm a rat
I'm a rat
I'm a rat
I'm a rat
And I put myself in that trap
And I'm happy about that
