Syd Barrett - Rats Lyrics

Got it hit down

spot knock inside a spider

says: "That's love yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!"

"That's love yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!"

says: "That's love - All know it

TV, teeth, feet, peace, feel it...

"That's love yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!"

"That's love yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!"



like the fall that brings me to

I like the fall that brings me to

I like the cord around sinew

I make a cord around sinew



Duck, the way to least is less

Tea craving of the metal west

'ell tomorrow's rain and test

'ell tomorrow's rain and test

Love an empty son and guess

Love an empty son and guess

pimples dangerous and blessed



Heaving, arriving, tinkling

mingling jets and statuettes

seething wet we meeting fleck

seething wet we meeting fleck

lines and winds and crib and half

each fair day I give you half

of each fair day I give you half

I look into your eyes and you,

flathe in the sun for you...



Bam, spastic, tactile engine

heaving, crackle, slinky, dormy, roofy, wham

I'll have them, fried bloke

broken jardy, cardy, smoocho, moocho, paki, pufftle

sploshette moxy, very smelly,

cable, gable, splintra, channel

top the seam he's taken off



rats, rats lay down flat

we don't need you, we act like that

and if you think you're un-loved

then we know about that...

rats, rats, lay down flat!

yes, yes, yes, yes, lay down flat!
