AGATHA

it was a night to hot to sleep
we went to town where people meet
we had a drink or two
and everything was oh so nice

she came along with two of her kids
agatha was her name she said
and i'm ashamed to say that we thought they were mice

she turned and said hello
and for a slice of bread she'd stay
we said "how's your family?"
and she said "well they're ok"

her name was agatha
her tail was long and red
and though it's oh so sad
agatha the rat is dead

white powder they sold in that place
maybe she liked the taste
she found a little snack
and now it seems she had too much

her kids sold what was left of the dope
and then they moved out of town
i never heard of them
but i still remember their mom

she turned and said hello
and for a slice of bread she'd stay
we said "how's your family?"
and she said "well they're ok"

her name was agatha
her tail was long and red
and though it's oh so sad
agatha the rat is dead

she turned and said hello
and for a slice of bread she'd stay
we said "how's your family?"
and she said "well they're ok"

she turned and said hello
and for a slice of bread she'd stay
we said "how's your family?"
and she said "well they're ok"

her name was agatha
her tail was long and red
and though it's oh so sad
agatha the rat is dead

her name was agatha
her tail was long and red
and though it's oh so sad
agatha the rat is dead

agatha the rat is dead
agatha the rat is dead
