Ol' Rat Face

(album: Gilded Pleasures - 2013)

Some call him Rat Face
Human hands and starburst eyes
Unloved and thrown away to the unforgiving night
And when the moon is bright as dawn the chase is on

He never had a decent chance
Thieving like it's his birth right

Some can't be trusted, never open up to them
Or become the hunted, each month he's met his chance [?]
And when the moon is bright as dawn the chase is on

He never had a decent chance
Thieving like it's his birth right

Here comes Ol' Rat Face
Drunk again and shedding lies
He keeps a straight face, seldom laughs and never cries
And when the moon is bright as dawn the chase is on

He never had a decent chance
Thieving like it's his birth right

How can he ever believe again
The whole world shunned him.
Too afraid to let you in
Cause nobody ever loved him

Some call him Rat Face
Human hands and starburst eyes
Unloved and thrown away to the unforgiving night
And when the moon is bright as dawn the chase is on

Never had a decent chance
Thieving like it's his birth right
