You said a thing
it heard it
did a trick
now that’s all you’re seeing
Now, you want it
getting it
get credit
It’s future Ben’s problem
he’ll have to solve it
but he’s not feeling it
It’s in your face
in your ears
in your house
yet so uninvited
You should shut it down
cut it off
kick it out
leave it unrequited
you’re gonna have to fight it
It’s all make money, spend money
make money, spend money
make money, spend money, Die
make money, spend money
make money, spend money
and don’t ask why
It’s all spend money, spend money
spend money, spend money
No you’re in debt
So make money, make money
make money, make money
but don’t keep it
Get, out your bed
out your house
in your car
and into some traffic
Then, you’re at work
at your desk
out your mind
it’s all so tragic
Where has the magic gone
It’s all make money, spend money
make money, spend money
make money, spend money, Die
make money, spend money
make money, spend money
and don’t ask why
It’s all spend money, spend money
spend money, spend money
No you’re in debt
So make money, make money
make money, make money
but don’t keep it

I ain’t got no alibi
no one to verify
where I was last night
and I ain’t talking to you
until my lawyer’s in the room
I’ve seen CSI
And you’re asking of me
for photographic memory
well that would be sweet
It was some two months ago
and I don’t even know
where I was last week
You ain’t getting a confession out of me
I’ll be, back out soon you’ll see
I had the means, motive, opportunity
I had the means, motive, opportunity
I had the means, motive, opportunity
But I swear, it weren’t me
In the identity parade
you were made
by two witnesses
who saw you threaten him
Well yeah that happened but it weren’t reasonless
We’ve got DNA, GSR
CCTV of your car
and some fingerprints
well some of that’s fabrication
the rest has a reasonable explanation
I didn’t do it
It’s a sticth up
You ain’t getting a confession out of me
I’ll be, back out soon you’ll see
I had the means, motive, opportunity
I had the means, motive, opportunity
I had the means, motive, opportunity
But I swear, it weren’t me

Stand on your own two feet you’re a man now too
feel the beat of the drums as they take a chunk out of you
feel the beat of the drums and the rumble of bass
as they’re taking over you
and I know you feel it too
You’re standing tall you’re a big boy aren’t you now son?
feel the heat of the gun in your hands, what have you done?
feel the heat of the gun in your hands as the bullet hits the wall
thank god you missed them all
your best friend just called you a prick
and he said it like he didn’t really mean it
now your confused were you abused
you wouldn’t take that from someone new
you’re a big tough man, no-one fucks with you
You’ve got a lot to learn and a lot more to forget
I’ve seen less bullshit from the tory cabinet
I’ve seen less bullcrap from the tinfoil hats
and the anti-vaxers too
rubellas gonna get you
My best friend just called me a prick
and he said it like he really fucking meant it
with friends like this you don’t need no more
if I know one thing it’s what friends are for
it’s for calling you a prick, when you’ve been a prick
You’ve been a prick mate
Every time I turn around
I see the same old pricks in this same old town
Every time I turn around
I see the same old pricks in this same old town
Every time I turn around
I see the same old pricks in this same old town
I hear the same old licks from brand new bands
I hear the same old licks from brand new bands
I hear the same old licks from brand new bands
My girlfriends got two fingers in a V
her arm’s outstretched and she’s pointing them at me
I’d like to think it’s a peace sign
not aimed at me
but there’s no one there and god knows what I’ve done
there’s no one there and god knows what I’ve done

Stop making mountains of my hills
Stop making mountains of my hills
Step into my sewer
You’ll be one fewer than you were before

Rat vs Mole
who will win?
he’s coming for you
it’s really happening
Rat vs Mole
watch your back
before you know it
surprise attack
Rat vs mole
lay your traps
and snap
You’ll lie if they ask you
are you a cop?
he’s coming for you and he ain’t gonna stop
They’ve got their man
On the inside
can’t flush him out because he knows how to hide
He’s coming for you
He’s coming for you
what can you do?
Rat vs Mole
you decide
but be careful and don’t trust their lies
You’re out of control
and out of time
cos in the end everyone dies
Don’t tell a soul
don’t call me lazy
I steal my song ideas from Martin Scorsese
Running in a circle
you can’t define
are you in front or are you behind?
You’re on his tail
and he’s on yours
you’ll use your smarts he’ll use his teeth and his claws
He’s coming for you
He’s coming for you
what can you do?
Positive punishment and as means of encouragement
never really worked on me
back me in a corner and I better warn you
this rat has teeth
And you’ll find out soon enough
that as long as I’m breathing I will be seeking
the proof that I need
Rat vs mole
lay your traps
and snap
