Oh, I think I smell a rat
Oh, I think I smell a rat

All you little kids seem to think you know just where it's at
Oh, I think I smell a rat
Walking down the street carrying a baseball bat
Oh, I think I smell a rat

Oh, I think I smell a rat
Oh, I think I smell a rat

All you little kids seem to think you know just where it's at
Oh, I think I smell a rat
Using your mother and father for a welcome mat
Oh, I think I smell a rat
Yeah

    It sounds a lot like it could've been inspired by Gene Vincent's "Catch Me a Rat" (also minor key, similar rhythm, and, of course, the very similar title and chorus). This would be a worthy update on the Vincent tune, though, and I guess it's still different enough. Badass song.
