[00:06.27] Well ah jumpt! and fled this ****en heap on doctored wings
[00:13.05] Mah flailin pinions, with splints and rags and crutches!
[00:17.19] (damn things nearly hardly flap)
[00:18.72] Canker upon canker upon one million tiny punctures
[00:22.11] That look like...
[00:22.38] Long thin red ribbons draped across the arms of a lil mortal girl
[00:30.72] (like a ground -plan of hell)
[00:33.90] Curse these smartin strings! these ****en ruptures!
[00:37.14] Enough! enough is enough!
[00:37.92] (if this is heaven ah'm bailin out)
[00:43.41] If this is heaven ah'm bailin out
[00:46.05] Ah caint tolerate this ol tin-tub
[00:47.25] So fulla trash and rats! felt one crawl across mah soul
[00:51.48] For a seckon there , as thought as wassa back down in the ghetto!
[00:54.09] (rats in paradise! rats in paradise!)
[00:56.37] Ah'm bailin out! there's a mutiny in heaven!
[01:06.27] Ah wassa born...
[01:09.87] And lord shakin, even then was dumpt into some icy font,
[01:13.59] Like some great stinky unclean!
[01:17.46] From slum-chuch to slum-church, ah spilt mah heart
[01:20.55] To some fat cunt behind a screen...
[01:23.85] Evil poppin eye presst up to the opening
[01:26.91] He'd slide shut the lil perforated hatch...at night mah body
[01:30.45] Blusht
[01:30.99] To the whistle of the birch
[01:32.91] With a lil practice ah soon learnt to use in on mahself
[01:35.55] Punishment? ! reward!! punishment? ! reward!!
[01:42.81] Well, ah tied on...percht on mah bed ah was...
[01:45.63] Sticken a needle in mah arm...
[01:47.34] Ah tied off! ****en wings burst out mah back
[01:50.79] (like ah was cuttin teeth!!)
[01:52.98] Ah took off!!!
[01:53.16] (rats in paradise! rats in paradise!)
[01:58.02] There's a mutiny in heaven!
[02:08.25] Oh lord, ah git down on mah knees
[02:11.76] (ah git down on mah knees and start to pray)
[02:13.50] Wrapped in mah mongrel wings, ah nearly freeze
[02:16.56] In the howlin wind and drivin rain
[02:18.12] (all the trash blowin round 'n' round)
[02:18.84] From slum-heaven into town
[02:23.43] Ah take mah tiny pain and rollin back mah sleeve
[02:39.63] (roll anna roll anna roll anna roll)
[02:40.95] Ah yank the drip outa mah vein! utopiate! ah'm bailin out!
[02:49.20] Utopiate!
[02:49.47] If this is heaven ah'm bailin out!
[02:50.10] Mah threadbare soul teems with vermin and louse
[02:53.64] Thoughts come like a plague to the head...in god's house!
[03:17.82] Mutiny in heaven!
[03:18.24] (ars infectio forco dio)
[03:18.81] To the plank!
[03:19.08] (rats in paradise! rats in paradise!)
[03:41.73] Ah'm bailin out!
[03:42.51] (hail hypuss dermio vita rex!)
[03:43.17] Hole inna ghetto! hole inna ghetto!
[04:14.97] (scabio murem per sanctum...dio, dio, dio)
