Rat race
Some a lawful, some a bastard,
Some a jacket

Rat race
Some a gorgan, some a hooligan,
Some a guine-gog

Rat race
I'm singing that when the cat's away
The mice will play
Political violence fill ya city, yeah
Don't involve rasta in your say-say
Rasta don't work for no CIA
Rat race, rat race, rat race, rat race
I'm saying when you think is peace and safety
A sudden destruction
Collective security for surety yeah !
Don't forget your history
Know your destiny
In the abundance of water
The fool is thirsty
Rat race, rat race, rat race, rat race
Oh it's a disgrace
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
