FLIGHT OF THE RAT (Blackmore/Gillan/Glover/Lord/Paice)
Spread the word around The rat is leaving town The message is a song The misery is gone Oh, yes he did.
Once I had a dream To sing before the queen She didn't want to know She wouldn't see the show
What a fright I couldn't do it right Oh what a night, Oh what a sight.
Mystic demons fly All about the sky With memories of a clown The saddest show in town, oh yes.
When I was seventeen Me mother said to me Be careful what you touch You shouldn't take so much.
I blew my mind She was so kind I could have cried, oh no.
In my mind I had to find A kind of new way Of being oh so cool Like a blue blooded Well studded English fool
Speak about the past Times are changing fast Once I was so weak I couldn't even speak Not a word.
Shaking put a curse- Nothing could be worse Walking through the door Who could ask for more?
Now I'm free And I can see, And I am me, Yes I am free
Spread the word around - The rat is leaving town The message is a song The misery is gone
Shaking out a curse Nothing could be worse Walking through the door Who could ask for more
Now I'm free And I can see, And I am me, Yes I am free
Please stay away!
