RATS
Pearl Jam㠀 Lyrics

They don't eat don't sleep
These rats are not worried about basic survival needs.

They don't feed they don't seethe
These rats don't provide for themselves or harbor resentment.

Bare their gums when they moan and squeak
They express agitation and frustration through vocalizations.

Lick the dirt off a larger one's feet
They submit to those who are bigger and more powerful than them.

They don't push don't crowd
They don't impose themselves or invade others' space.

Congregate until they're much too loud
When they gather in groups, they become noisy and disruptive.

Fuck to procreate till they are dead
They mate solely for the purpose of reproduction until they die.

Drink the blood of their so called best friend
They are willing to betray and harm those they consider close.

They don't scurry when something bigger comes their way
They don't flee from danger or threats.

Don't pack themselves together and run as one
They don't unite in times of crisis or emergency.

Don't shit where they're not supposed to
They have enough sense to relieve themselves in appropriate areas.

Don't take what's not theirs, they don't compare
They don't have a sense of ownership or comparison to others.

They don't scam, don't fight
They don't cheat or engage in physical altercations.

Don't oppress an equals given rights
They don't discriminate or restrict the freedoms of those they consider equal.

Starve the poor so they can be well fed
They prioritize their own well-being over that of others less fortunate.

Line their holes with the dead ones bread
They use the remains of dead rats to fortify their own dwellings.

Rats, They don't compare
Overall, rats don't exhibit the same qualities or characteristics as humans.

Ben, the two of us need look no more
This line does not belong to the song Rats by Pearl Jam.
