about

Rat is Mone's ode to Berlin.

lyrics

Rat

This town
Where I pissed just like a dog
This town
Turned my head from clear to fog
This town
Where I threw my body in the dirt and left it there to rot

This town
Where let down lovers in crowded places
Offer you their empty spaces

Known to me are not the strange ways of the heart
Notable are though the notions of departure
Oh, the lover loses at a rapid pace
Holds the wistful wish to become another

This town
Where they twirl and fight the force
This town
Where they come when coming calls
This town
Where the wall come at you full of flies and full of nevermores

This clown
Who loved me like a joke
This clown
Who was on me like a hoax
This clown
And of me never spoke

Known to me are not the strange ways of the heart
Notable are though the notions of departure
Oh, the lover loses at a rapid pace
Holds the wistful wish to become another


This town
Where I pissed just like a dog
This town
Turned my head from clear to fog
This town
Where I threw my body
in the dirt
In the dirt
In the dirt
And left it there to rot
