Rat Who Would Be King Lyrics by Matthew Good Band

Rat Who Would Be King Lyrics

    Even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while
    Once you're in you're pretty much fucked
    When i was the rat
    The rat who would be king
    I imagined typhoid and us alone
    Always us alone
    And i've waited on the sidelines all this time
    And i've a grenade
    With our names scratched on the side
    But that's love
    And you know that love's not enough

    Crawl from the sea
    Wait for some thumbs
    A greatness to breed
    Build the mall of america
    When i was rat
    The rat would be king
    I imagined ashes and us alone
    Always us alone
    And i've waited on the sidelines all this time
    And i've a grenade
    With our names scratched on the side
    But that's just love
    And you know that love's not enough
