Oh, what a rat race, yeah, rat race!

In this 'ere rat race, rat race! I'm singin' that:

 When the cat's away; the mice will play.

 Political voilence, fill ya city, ye-ah!

A#
 Don't involve Rasta in your say say;

Cm
 Rasta don't work for no, C.I.A.

    A#                  Cm
Rat race, rat race, rat race, rat race! I'm sayin';

A#
 When you think, is peace and safety; a sudden destruction.

 Collective security, for surety, ye-ah!

 Don't forget your history, know your destiny;

In the a-bundance of water, the fool is thirsty.

Oh, it's a dis-grace to see the human-race, in a rat race, rat race!

You got the horse race; you got the dog race;

You got the human-race; but this is a rat race, rat race!
