   Down In The Sewer

 

 

  作词：Jet Black, Jean Jacques Burnel, Hugh Alan Cornwell, David Paul Greenfield

  

  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)
