Rat

Let's go!
Every rat has a long tail
Every rat has a sharp sense of smell
Every rat enjoys the dark, licks leftovers
Every rat leaves a trail
Every rat betrays and lies
Every rat scares people
Every rat walks in a group
They are the rats, they are the rats, they are the rats
Quite cunning

But there's always one that's different
There's always one that even surprises us
This rat that shows up here
Is a rat that we like
It's a rat that instead of picking up
Cheese crumbs and eating on the street
Prefers a thousand times a kiss
A brilliant kiss from the moon

Waning moon, waxing moon
I declare to be your most beautiful lover
With you, I want to get married
Turn the dark night
Into our altar

Rat, my dear rat
I'm not one for fine manners
To seal this contract
My light is fleeting
I'm always on the edge
Even when I'm whole
A cloud comes to cover me
It's that cloud, mischievous cloud
That will make you happy

Round cloud covering the moonlight
I declare to be your most beautiful lover
With you, I want to get married
Turn the vast sky
Into our altar

Rat, my dear rat
I'm not one for fine manners
To seal this contract
My shadow is so cloudy
I'm always on the edge
Even when I'm still
A breeze comes to dilute me
It's that breeze, naughty breeze
That will make you happy

Soft breeze
That destroys the cloud covering the moonlight
I declare to be your most beautiful lover
And with you, I want to get married
Turn the wind
Into our altar

Rat, my dear rat
I'm not one for fine manners
To seal this contract
Even when I blow hard
A wall comes to block me
Only the wall of a house
Doesn't let the breeze pass
It's that wall, hard wall
That will learn to love you

Still wall
That blocks the breeze that destroys the cloud
Covering the moonlight
I declare to be your most beautiful lover
And with you, I want to get married
Turn the earth
Into our altar

Rat, my dear rat
I'm not one for fine manners
To seal this contract
My bricks are made of clay
But it's not hard to dig through me
Even though I'm very secure
A little rat comes to dig me
Only the sharp-toothed little rat
Will know how to love you

Sharp-toothed little rat
That digs through the wall blocking the breeze
That destroys the cloud covering the moonlight
I declare to be your most beautiful lover
And with you, I want to get married
Turn nature
Into our altar

Rat, my dear rat
I, who am one for fine manners
To seal this contract
My sense of smell is so accurate
With you, I'll be happy
Even though I'm not perfect
I'm the chosen little rat
I'm all here awkwardly
Waiting for a big cheese
Oops!
Waiting for a big kiss

Every female rat has a long tail
Every female rat has a sharp sense of smell
Every female rat enjoys the dark, licks leftovers
Every female rat leaves a trail
Every female rat betrays and lies
Every female rat scares people
Every female rat walks in a group
They are the female rats, they are the female rats, they are the female rats
Quite cunning
