LYRICS
------

There's something not right with what you're saying,
with my heart I think you're just a' playing,
lie after lie escape your lips,
from your toes to your fingertips I smell a rat.

I smell a rat,
I smell a rat.

Something you said got stuck in my head,
I know it's a lie but I try and I try,
to rationalise the words that are spoken,
with eyes wide open I'm looking for the truth

I smell a rat,
I smell a rat,
I smell a rat,
I smell a rat.

And the rat is you.

Don't deny, turn and sigh,
roll your eyes to the sky,
it's a lie, say goodbye,
my friend.

You're a rat, return to where you came from,
you're a rat, return to where you came from,
you're a rat, return to where you came from,
you're a rat, return to where you came from.

I smell a rat, a filthy rat,
I smell a rat, a filthy rat,
I smell a rat,
I smell a rat

and the rat is you.

I smell a rat,
I smell a rat,
I smell a rat
and the rat is you.
