Behind their suits, behind their ties, they whisper in the dark Deals in shadows, secret schemes, they leave a dirty mark They smile for the cameras, promise hope with every speech But the truth’s a whispered secret, far beyond our reach They hide their webs of power, their greed a hidden light Rats on the right, crawling out of sight Rats on the right, they’re playing the game Selling out the people just to make a name Whispers in the halls, corruption in disguise But everyone knows, it’s just lies, lies, lies They talk about freedom while they fill their pockets deep Behind closed doors, the deals they make, leave the honest asleep They feast upon the riches while we fight for crumbs of bread Their politics is golden, but it’s rotten where it’s fed They think we cannot see it, but we’re watching from the night Rats on the right, crawling out of sight Rats on the right, they’re playing the game Selling out the people just to make a name Whispers in the halls, corruption in disguise But everyone knows, it’s just lies, lies, lies Rats on the right, they’re playing the game Selling out the people just to make a name Whispers in the halls, corruption in disguise But everyone knows, it’s just lies, lies, lies Their fortunes grow while the world turns gray We hear the whispers, but they laugh away Behind their gold, their souls decay We’ll rise, we’ll rise, someday Rats on the right, they’re playing the game Selling out the people just to make a name Whispers in the halls, corruption in disguise But everyone knows, it’s just lies, lies, lies Rats on the right, they’re playing the game Selling out the people just to make a name Whispers in the halls, corruption in disguise But everyone knows, it’s just lies, lies, lies Rats on the right, crawling through the night But we see through the lies, we’ll stand and fight
