Rodent

(album: Rabies - 1989)

Level edge
Backs against the ledge
No knives
The stone hard eyes
Without the longing
Or fear that it would disappear
They cling on, nurturing
Never-ending

Obsessions on the table
Lines needed
Walls cover tips the balance
Don't touch me
Wiped out
Cornering
Mouth the word money
Mouth the word money
Mouth the word money

Going to make some money
In god I will trust
Death behold persuasion
Won't bust me up

Hey ho, what you doing you here?
[?]

Head shake
Handshake
Out to get out of the way
From corrosion
Pushes closer to the edge
Wire not connected

Peeling back
Plastic wrap
Tinted green
And all illusion [x3]

And all
Existing

Caught up crossfire
Trading tall tales
Way to go man
where do you fail
What's that mean? [x3]

Back and forth
Side by side
Loose knot weave
Keep it up
Altogether
Or whatever that means

Passing underneath
The trespass

Don't get too close
Don't get too close
Mouth the word your money
Mouth the word your money

If I fade I may
And I want to get away
All that I do
Is pray
That you will be there too
If this is trying
To deceive some minds
What the hell have you got to say?

Under the surface lies
I know the secret

Altogether
Altogether

The quiet minds
Looking for their treats
(Heart?)

Time to stop
Time to stop
Time to stop

Money
Mouth the word money
Mouth the word money
Mouth the word money

Better build a better mouse trap
