Oh I think I smell a rat
I think I smell a rat
all you little kids
seem to think you know
just where it's at
I think I smell a rat
walking down the street
carrying a baseball bat
I think I smell a rat

Rat In Mi Kitchen

Chorus

There's a rat in me kitchen what am I gonna do?
There's a rat in me kitchen what am I gonna go?
I'm gonna fix that rat thats what I'm gonna do,
I'm gonna fix that rat.

When you open your mouth you don't talk, you shout
And you give every body the blame,
But when they catch you up,
They will shut you up
And you got no one to blame

Chorus

There's a rat in me kitchen ........ Etc

When you out on the street,
You practice lies and deceipt
And you scandalize my name
But when I catch you up
I'm gonna pull you up
I'm gonna check-out inside your brain

Chorus

There's a rat in me kitchen ....... Etc

when yo deh pon the scene,
You make everyone scream
Because they know your so unjust
But when they catch you up
They will kick you up
Because you someone they cannot trust

Chorus

There's a rat in me kitchen ....... Etc

You invade my space
Make me feel disgraced
And you just don't give a damn
If I had my way
If I had my say
I'd like to see you hang

Chorus

There's a rat in me kitchen ..... Etc

Repeat chorus and fade

I love that song. Loved UB40's cover of it too.

"Rats"

they don't eat, don't sleep
they don't feed, they don't seethe
bare their gums when they moan and squeak
lick the dirt off a larger one's feet
they don't push, don't crowd
congregate until they're much too loud
fuck to procreate till they are dead
drink the blood of their so called best friend
they don't scurry when something bigger comes their way
don't pack themselves together and run as one
don't shit where they're not supposed to
don't take what's not theirs, they don't compare
they don't scam, don't fight
don't oppress an equals given rights
starve the poor so they can be well fed
line their holes with the dead ones bread
they don't scurry when something bigger comes their way
don't pack themselves together and run as one
don't shit where they're not supposed to
don't take what's not theirs, they don't compare...
they don't scurry when something bigger comes their way
don't pack themselves together and run as one
don't shit where they're not supposed to
don't take what's not theirs, they don't compare...
rats...they don't compare
rats...they don't compare
ben, the two of us need look no more
ben, the two of us need look no more

I never got the whole pearl jam thing aprt from a few songs from the big record.
Peaches

strolling along minding my own buisness
well there goes a girl and a half
she's got me going up and down
she's got me going up and down

walking on the beaches looking at the peaches

well i got the notion girl that you got some suntan lotion in that bottle of yours
spread it all over my peelin' skin baby
that feels real good
all this skirt lappin' up the sun
lap me up
why don't you come on and
lap me up

walking on the beaches looking at the peaches

well there goes another one just lying down on the sand dunes
i'd better go take a swim and see if i can cool down a little bit
coz you and me woman
we got a lotta things on our minds (you know what i mean)

walking on the beaches looking at the peaches

will you just take a look over there (where?) there
is she tryin' to get outta that clitares?
liberation for women
thats what i preach
preacher man

walking on the beaches looking at the peaches

oh shit
there goes the charabang
looks like im gonna be stuck here the whole summer
well what a bummer
i can think of a lot worse places to be
like down in the streets
or down in the sewer
or even on the end of a skewer[/b]
