<br>Well ah jumpt! and fled this fucken heap on doctored wings<br>Mah flailin pinions, with splints and rags and crutches!<br>(Damn things nearly hardly flap)<br>Canker upon canker upon one million tiny punctures<br>That look like...<br>Long thin red ribbons draped across the arms of a lil mortal girl<br>(Like a ground -plan of Hell)<br>Curse these smartin strings! These fucken ruptures!<br>Enough! Enough is enough!<br>(If this is Heaven ah`m bailin out)<br>If this is Heaven ah`m bailin out<br>Ah caint tolerate this ol tin-tub<br>So fulla trash and rats! Felt one crawl across mah soul<br>For a seckon there , as thought as wassa back down in the ghetto!<br>(Rats in Paradise! Rats in Paradise!)<br>Ah`m bailin out! There`s a mutiny in Heaven!<br><br><br>Ah wassa born...<br>And Lord shakin, even then was dumpt into some icy font,<br>like some great stinky unclean!<br>From slum-chuch to slum-church, ah spilt mah heart<br>To some fat cunt behind a screen...<br><br><br>Evil poppin eye presst up to the opening<br>He`d slide shut the lil perforated hatch...at night mah body<br>blusht<br>To the whistle of the birch<br>With a lil practice ah soon learnt to use in on mahself<br>Punishment?! Reward!! Punishment?! Reward!!<br>Well, ah tied on...percht on mah bed ah was...<br>sticken a needle in mah arm...<br><br><br>Ah tied off! Fucken wings burst out mah back<br>(Like ah was cuttin teeth!!)<br>Ah took off!!!<br>(Rats in Paradise! Rats in Paradise!)<br>There`s a mutiny in Heaven!<br><br><br>Oh Lord, ah git down on mah knees<br>(Ah git down on mah knees and start to pray)<br><br><br>Wrapped in mah mongrel wings, ah nearly freeze<br>In the howlin wind and drivin rain<br>(All the trash blowin round `n` round)<br>>From slum-heaven into town<br>Ah take mah tiny pain and rollin back mah sleeve<br>(Roll anna roll anna roll anna roll)<br>Ah yank the drip outa mah vein! UTOPIATE! Ah`m bailin out!<br>UTOPIATE!<br>If this is Heaven ah`m bailin out!<br>Mah threadbare soul teems with vermin and louse<br>Thoughts come like a plague to the head...in God`s house!<br>Mutiny in Heaven!<br>(Ars infectio forco Dio)<br>To the plank!<br>(Rats in Paradise! Rats in Paradise!)<br>Ah`m bailin out!<br>(Hail Hypuss Dermio Vita Rex!)<br>Hole inna ghetto! Hole inna ghetto!<br>(Scabio Murem per Sanctum...Dio, Dio, Dio)
