Dead Rats by Buck Gooter Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Dead rats in my ceiling
I can smell them rotting
And the paint is peeling
The maggots will arrive, then the flies
I can watch these motes remotely
A floating circus for the eyes
A layer of dust forms around me
Which is no surprise
Because I am peeling, I'm rotting
The sunlight shows me particles
The thin smoke I’m emitting
So much of me is airborne
So much of me is dead
Dead rats in my ceiling
Dead rats in my ceiling
I can smell them rotting
And the paint is peeling
The maggots will arrive, then the flies
I can watch these motes remotely
A floating circus for the eyes
A layer of dust forms around me
Which is no surprise
Because I am peeling, I'm rotting
The sunlight shows me particles
The thin smoke I’m emitting
So much of me is airborne
So much of me is dead
Dead rats in my ceiling
