Rottweiler Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There's a snake in my boots
There's a rat in my cage
There's a shark at my feet
That's been circling for days
There's a vulture at my breakfast table
People think I'm insane
[Chorus]
Rottweiler
Rottweiler
Rottweiler
Rottweiler
Rottweiler
Rottweiler
Rottweiler
Rottweiler
[Verse 2]
There's a snake in my boots
There's a rat in my cage
There's a shark at my feet
That's been circling for days and days
There's a vulture at my breakfast table
People think I'm insane
There's a ghost in my bed
There's milk in my coffee
[Chorus]
Rottweiler
Rottweiler
Rottweiler
Rottweiler
Rottweiler
Rottweiler
Rottweiler
Rottweiler
[Outro]
Keep going
Keep fucking going
Keep going
Fuck 'em, fuck 'em
Go
Smash it
Ruin it
Destroy the world
Burn your house down
Unity
