Rats In The Sky

I'd rather be amongst the clouds

Elevated, elevated in the sky

Don't care too much, yeah, for the ground

Elevated, rats in the sky

Liquid gurgling coos

My neck is bobbling like a bobble head

From a high rise city view apartment

Rainbow oil pile greasy sheen

Never been wild, never been that tame

Internal compass paves the way

I'd rather be amongst the clouds

Elevated, elevated in the sky

Don't care too much, yeah, for the ground

Elevated, rats in the sky

I'm so goddamn filthy (filthy)

Am I a pet or is this man trying to kill me? (Kill me)

Take my little hood off and set me free

So I can join the other feathered rats at the bar

There's the garbage man with a scar on his heart

Primordial reasons got me thinking that we're not so far apart

Not so far

Filth rats in the sky

Not so far apart

Sky borne rats don't lie

I'm making a detour by the pub

To eat a little lunch and take a load off

The garbage man knows we're a symbiotic duo

Look out for the cat named Bruno

Crusts are my banquet

And puddles are my wine

I revel in the present

Each moment, a lifetime

I need only flap my wings

And I'm where I wanna be

This cruel city that I love

My crumb kingdom

Doesn't planet earth look good from this perch?

Rats in the sky

Eat, fly, survive (woo)

Well, their mind is miles from their bodies

Forgot the joy of simply being

They miss the magic of the mundane

The way raindrops race down windowpanes

Always hurrying, never arriving

Nothing truly dangerous, nothing surprising

Liberated by wings, unburdened by worry

Forgot the destination but enjoyed the journey (woo)

Scooby doo wop, doo wop

Scooby doo wop, doo wop

Scooby doo wop, doo wop

Scooby doo wop, doo wop

Jokes on you (scooby doo wop, doo wop)

You stupid men (scooby doo wop, doo wop)

I just went to the costume shop (scooby doo wop, doo wop)

And bought myself some wings, I'm a-
