lyrics

Larger Rat

Ran into a friend
out the doors of the station
and we started
to have a chat

The roar of an engine cut through our
conversation
the rat has aged into nothing but

A larger rat

I’ve seen the rat grow up
I used to fix the hinges on his mother’s door
his father worked in town
I watched that fur slowly fall out

What’s a poor mother to do?
When your little rat wants nothing to do with you
he needs a

A larger town

Went on talking with my friend
talked of couples that had ended recently
he could see my thoughts were hacking through the past
and I could see his concentration
was similarly
split
