Next Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
About all these rats
All these SEWER rats
And all these good rats
I'm talking bout these gold digging rats
These hood rats
My grandmother's a rat!
My mother's a rat!
She just a high class rat
My sisters rats
She just a middle class rat
My cousin Rance
He just low class rat
I'm tired a rats
Trying the get in my boys pockets
I'm tired of rats
Trying ta ride round in our cars
I'm tired of rats
Talking all that jibba jabba to they friends
But in one day
These rats goin' be straight
No dis the rats
Cause there are some rats that I love too
My message to you today
Is admit the rat in you!
To all women
[Repeat: x4]
Admit the rat in you!
The song Admit The Rat by Next is a rap-like track that highlights the presence of rats in society. The song starts off with the singer talking about the different kinds of rats that exist, including sewer rats, hood rats, gold-digging rats, high class rats, low class rats, and even his own family members who he refers to as rats. The singer expresses his frustration with rats constantly trying to take advantage of him and his friends for their money and possessions, and how he's tired of them talking behind his back.
However, towards the end of the song, the singer takes a different approach by saying that there are some rats that he loves too, and encourages everyone to admit their rat-like qualities. He specifically addresses women by repeating the line, "Admit the rat in you", four times at the end of the song.
Overall, the song Admit The Rat is about accepting the different aspects of oneself, even if they are considered negative or undesirable. It sheds light on the fact that everyone has a "rat" in them, representing their flaws and imperfections, and that we should embrace them instead of trying to hide or deny them.
