Rat Trap

Rat Trap - The Boomtown Rats[00:00:00]

There was a lot of rocking going on that night[00:00:32]

Cruising time for the young bright lights[00:00:37]

Just down past the gasworks[00:00:40]

By the meat factory door[00:00:41]

The five lamp boys were coming on strong[00:00:43]

The Saturday night city beat had already started and the[00:00:46]

The pulse of the corner boys just sprang into action[00:00:50]

And young Billy watched it under the yellow street light[00:00:54]

And said tonight of all nights there's gonna be a fight[00:00:57]

Billy don't like it living here in this town[00:01:04]

He says traps have been sprung long before he was born[00:01:07]

He says hope bites the dust behind all the closed doors[00:01:10]

And pus and grime ooze from its scab-crusted sores[00:01:14]

There's screaming and crying in the high-rise blocks[00:01:18]

It's a rat trap Billy[00:01:21]

But you're already caught[00:01:23]

And you can make it if you want to or you need it bad enough[00:01:24]

You're young and good-looking and you're acting kind of tough[00:01:28]

Anyway it's Saturday night[00:01:31]

Time to see what's going down[00:01:33]

Put on a bright suit Billy[00:01:34]

Head for the right side of town[00:01:36]

It's only eight o'clock[00:01:38]

But you're already bored[00:01:40]

You don't know what it is[00:01:41]

But there's got to be more[00:01:43]

You'd better find a way out[00:01:45]

Hey kick down that door[00:01:47]

It's a rat trap and you've been caught[00:01:48]

In this town Billy says everybody's trying to tell you what to do[00:01:59]

In this town Billy says everybody says you gotta follow rules[00:02:06]

You walk up to the traffic lights[00:02:12]

You switch from your left to your right[00:02:14]

You push in that button[00:02:16]

And that button comes alight[00:02:17]

And it's[00:02:19]

Walk don't walk[00:02:20]

Walk don't walk[00:02:21]

Talk don't talk[00:02:23]

Talk don't talk[00:02:24]

Walk don't walk[00:02:26]

Walk don't walk[00:02:28]

Talk don't talk[00:02:29]

Talk don't talk[00:02:31]

Hey Billy take a walk[00:02:32]

Take a walk[00:02:34]

Take a walk[00:02:35]

Billy take a walk[00:02:36]

Take a walk[00:02:37]

Take a walk[00:02:38]

Billy take a walk[00:02:39]

Take a walk[00:02:41]

Take a walk[00:02:42]

Hey Billy take a walk with me[00:02:42]

Well little Judy's trying to watch Top of the Pops[00:03:13]

But mum and dad are fighting[00:03:16]

Don't they ever stop[00:03:18]

She takes off her coat and walks down to the street[00:03:20]

It's cold on that road[00:03:23]

But it's got that home beat[00:03:25]

Deep down in her pocket she finds 50p[00:03:27]

Hey is that any way for a young girl to be[00:03:30]

I'm gonna get out of school[00:03:33]

Work in some factory[00:03:35]

Work all the hours God gave me[00:03:36]

Get myself a little easy money[00:03:39]

Now now now na na[00:03:41]

Her mind's made up[00:03:47]

She walks down the road[00:03:49]

Her hands in her pockets[00:03:51]

Coat buttoned against the cold[00:03:52]

She finally finds Billy down at the Italian cafe[00:03:54]

And when he's drunk it's hard to understand what Billy says[00:03:57]

But then he mumbles in his coffee and he suddenly roars[00:04:00]

It's a rat trap Judy and we've been caught[00:04:04]
