Lyrics

Skin a Rat

There are many ways to skin a rat
There are many ways to skin a rat

In a skin a rat mood
Cut 'em, crush 'em
Big, big boot
In a skin a rat mood
Cut 'em, crush 'em
Big, big boot
Big, big boot

You sell sex draped in dissonance
U-Turn stocks up on innocence
Why does your cheap attention throw me off
Put me off, get me off, make me want to set it off
Hell-fucked economy
Crisis identity

In a skin a rat mood
Cut 'em, crush 'em
Big, big boot
In a skin a rat mood
Cut 'em, crush 'em
Big, big boot
Big, big boot
Big, big boot
Big, big boot

Slow climb up the mediocre ranks
When pigs die an angel gets its wings
Why does your good intention throw me off
Put me off, get me off, make me want to set it off
Hell-fucked economy
Crisis identity
Hell-fucked, hell-fucked

There are many ways to skin a rat
There are many ways to skin a rat
There are many ways to, to skin a rat

In a skin a rat mood
Cut 'em, crush 'em
Big, big boot
In a skin a rat mood
Cut 'em, crush 'em
Big, big boot
Big, big boot
Big, big boot
Big, big boot
Big, big boot
Big, big boot
Big, big boot
Big, big boot
