yellow rat bastard
© 2006 Charlie Newman
yellow rat bastard squints to see in the dark
every now and then he spins an involuntary 360
like he’s making sure he ain’t being followed
like the hip-no-ticks from New Jersey got his number
or he dropped the winning lotto ticket
winning lotto ticketyearight
rat bastard runs on instinct
ain’t got no braindon’t need one
too bad for useh?
bastard runs around and around and around in compulsive circles
andstillhe’s way the fuck ahead of us
slow motion con in the hyper-mega-turbo fast lane
to Nowheresville on a one-way ticket
and for what? I’m askin you for what?
rat bastard don’t give a good goddamn
do yourself a favor, Amigo pick the spinach off your teeth
