Down in the sewer

Picking up on a lot of empty Coca Cola cans

And there sure are a lot of them around here.



How did I get down here

Well it's a long story

I should have stayed down home out on the farm

And kept my tootsies warm

Instead of freezing them off down here.



There's lots of rats down here

You can see the whites of their eyes

They got sharp teeth

Deep breath, and lots of diseases



People say you shouldn't stay down here too long

Lose your sense of light and dark

Lose your sense of smell



I'll tell you what I'm gonna do

I'm gonna make love to a water rat or two

And breed a family

And they'll be called the survivors



You know why?

Because they're gonna survive

I'll see you in the sewer darling (and don't be late
