Songtexte Ratcatcher - GWAR

Once upon a time in the village of Hamelin
Had a dirty job so they hired an alien
Showed up with my pipe, now their rats are gone
Drowned in the river, that's extermination

You got to know
That it didn't have to go
Down this way
You made a choice when you got the invoice
And decided not to pay

I've got your children in my basement
Just trying to get out
I've got policemen searching my neighborhood
I hope they don't find out

Ten little fingers and ten little toes
Where they gonna end up
Nobody knows but me
It's not about the money
It's the principle
Keep your gold
It won't pay my toll, ya see

I asked ya once, ain't askin' twice
I'm not playing, I'm done being nice
You got the bill, ain't paid me still
So this is my new price

I've got your children in my basement
Just trying to get out
I've got policemen searching my neighborhood
I hope they don't find out
I've got your children in my basement
Hear them cry and shout
I've got policemen searching my neighborhood
Ain't got no reasonable doubt
And now we're even
Even
Yeah, even

You got to know
It didn't have to go
Down this way
You made a choice when you got the invoice
And decided not to pay

I've got your children in my basement
Just trying to get out
I've got policemen searching my neighborhood
They'll never figure it out
I've got your children in my basement
I got the rock in my pipe
I've got your children in my basement
For the rest of their lives
I've got your children in my basement
Feeling scared and alone
I've got your children in my basement
They're never gonna come home
And now we're even
Even
Yeah, even
