Rough On Rats Lyrics - Song Reader - Beck

Your crawfish fingers and your dirty dregs 

Your sideways stingers and your wooden legs 

They're throwing out jewels like rotten eggs 

'Cause it's Christmas in Siam 

And we're rough on rats 

Your scarecrow spiders and your shipwreck bones 

The fossilized bibles of Geronimo Jones 

His star spangled army in their roadhouse clothes 

'Cause a hero can't bronze his soul 

And we're rough on rats

There's shattered glass on the dance floor 

A cop chaperoning a doll 

The testament of a landlord 

Who's living in a hollow log 

The burlap flowers and the cocaine dirt 

The horn of plenty in a desert of hurt 

The corduroy boy in the killjoy shirt 

He's a stereotype on ice 

And we're rough on rats 

Photos 

So what do you think you could take from the heap 

Where the haystack needles are piled up cheap? 

You can buy what's useless and steal what you need 

In the pink penitentiary 

And we're rough on rats
