Dropkick Murphys - Good Rats lyrics
[Dropkick Murphys - Good Rats lyrics]
Have you ever stopped to think about
What rats do for fun?
Sure they crawl around and scurry
Yeah they're always on the run
But a rat sure likes a good time
Just like you and me
Ill prove it with a tale
About a rat-infested brewery
It started with a little
Lad named Vermin McCann
Who fell upon a drink that made
Him feel like quite a man
He rounded up his furry boys
Though some wore a frown
They quickly changed their tune and
They slammed a couple down
One, Two, One Two Three-Four!
Come on all you Good Rats
We'll send you to heaven
You'll find the Pearly Gates in
The froth and the foam
Cause in these vats you've
Made quite a creation
A potion that turned the Guinness to gold!
Like mice behind a piper
Rats from all around
Soon headed for this factory
In old Dublin town
They surely heard the news about
This fancy new rat-brew
They came, they saw, they had a taste
And knocked back a few
The rats were in a tizzy
Addicted to the bone
The hairy lugs were giddy
They were never goin home
Like a bunch of drunken pirates
Prepared to walk the plank
They drank they sang they took a plunge
And in the beer they sank!
What rats do for fun?
Sure they crawl around and scurry
Yeah they're always on the run
But a rat sure likes a good time
Just like you and me
Ill prove it with a tale
About a rat-infested brewery
It started with a little
Lad named Vermin McCann
Who fell upon a drink that made
Him feel like quite a man
He rounded up his furry boys
Though some wore a frown
They quickly changed their tune and
They slammed a couple down
One, Two, One Two Three-Four!
Come on all you Good Rats
We'll send you to heaven
You'll find the Pearly Gates in
The froth and the foam
Cause in these vats you've
Made quite a creation
A potion that turned the Guinness to gold!
Like mice behind a piper
Rats from all around
Soon headed for this factory
In old Dublin town
They surely heard the news about
This fancy new rat-brew
They came, they saw, they had a taste
And knocked back a few
The rats were in a tizzy
Addicted to the bone
The hairy lugs were giddy
They were never goin home
Like a bunch of drunken pirates
Prepared to walk the plank
They drank they sang they took a plunge
And in the beer they sank!
