Brian Deck - I Came as a Rat (Long Walk Off a Short Dock) lyrics

[Verse 1] Well, I ain't sure, but I've been told He's baking cakes inside our souls Stayed awake, took a nap Got myself my bottles back I'm breakin' them out on the street Walkin' around in my own bare feet I do not need you to tell me that I am not a cat I caught a ride, we caught some air He's never gonna cut his hair It takes more time to make a fake We night swam down in the lake And washed the dirt off our intentions Prattled on 'bout bad inventions I came as ice, I came as a who*e I came as advice that came too short I came as gold, I came as crap I came clean and I came as a rat It takes a long time, but God dies too But not before he'll stick it to you Well, I don't know, but I been told You'll never die and you'll never grow old I came as a call, I came as flat I came too soon so I came back I came as flowers, I came as nice I came as dirt and I came as its price It takes a long time, but God dies too But not before he'll stick it to you I don't know, but I've been told You never die and you'll never grow old
