Great King Rat Lyrics

Great King Rat died today.
Born on the twenty first of May.
Died syphillis forty four on his birthday.
Every second word he swore.
Yes he was the son of a whore.
Always wanted by the law.

Wouldn't you like to know?.
Wouldn't you like to know people?.
Great King Rat was a dirty old man.
And a dirty old man was he.
Now what did I tell you.
Would you like to see?.

Where will I be tomorrow?.
Will I beg or will I borrow?.
I don't care I don't care anyway.
Come on come on the time is right.
I told you ah yes I told you.
And that's no lie oh no no no.

Wouldn't you like to know?.
Wouldn't you like to know?.
Wouldn't you like to know?.
Great King Rat was a dirty old man.
And a dirty old man was he.
Now what did I tell you?.
Would you like to see?.

Wouldn't you like to know?.
Wouldn't you like to know people?.
Great King Rat was a dirty old man.
And a dirty old man was he.
Now what did I tell you?.
Would you like to see?.

Now listen all you people.
Put out the good and keep the bad.
Don't believe all you read in the Bible.
You sinners get in line.
Saints you leave far behind.
Very soon you're gonna be h.
Don't listen to what mama says.
Not a word not a word mama says.
Or else you'll find yourself being the rival.
The great Lord before He died.
Knelt sinners by his side.
And said you're gonna realise tomorrow.

No I'm not gonna tell you.
What you already know.
'Cause time and time again.
The old man said it all a long time ago.
Come come on the time is right.
This evil man will fight.
I told you once before.

Wouldn't you like to know?.
Wouldn't you like to know?.
Just like I said before.
Great King Rat was a dirty old man.
And a dirty old man was he.
The last time I tell you?.
Would you like to see?.
