My town of Warát
Is awash with rats
They break into houses,
Poor mice’s hutches
Boom town Warát
Boom town of rats
They make off with grains,
Their ill-gotten gains
They build ratzy mansions,
Go on vacations
Boom town Warát
Boom town of rats
They go to Las Vegas,
Spend dollars for thrillers
They’ve oodles of millions,
From kickbacks, commissions
Boom town Warát
Boom town of rats
The rats’ cruel troops
Kill mice and say, oops
They beat up protesters,
And kidnap the ratters
Boom town Warát
Boom town of rats
The ratlings inherit
Rats’ wealth and demerit
They’re all ritzy-glitzy,
Celebrity-crazy
Boom town Warát
Boom town of rats
The Fat Rats hog TV,
Croon ‘Everything’s dandy!’
The Top Rats burp ‘Hey,
We’re booming quite OK!’
Boom town Warát
Boom town of rats
One day the poor mice,
Will yell ‘No more lies!’
Swarm over the rats,
Ka-boom goes Warát!
Boom town Warát
Boom town of rats
Ka-boom, boom, boom,
My town of Warát!
