Rats in the Prison

Rats...

Rats in the prison,
Sentenced to obey,
Broken by the slaves,
Masquerading beyond the lights...

I am constantly in wonder,
What kind of an animal can live in this filth?
And you,
You're the kind of cheap whore,
Who's forever been living for,
Sucking the life out of me...

We're rats in the prison,
for one more hopeless day,
The glass tomb is not escapable
Forever buried in it's grave...

I am constantly in wonder,
What kind of an animal can live in this filth?
And you,
You're the kind of cheap whore,
Who's forever been living for,
Sucking the life out of me...

Rats,

I am constantly in wonder,
What kind of an animal can live in this filth?
And you,
You're the kind of cheap whore,
Who's forever been living for,
Sucking the life out of me...
I am constantly in wonder,
What kind of an animal can live in this filth?
And you,
You're the kind of fucking whore,
Who'll sell your heart and soul for a dollar bill...

Rats...

Was it the song you were looking for? No

The song I am looking for was on a children's album from the 50's. The lyrics that I remember were: What kind of an animal are you. You don't look like the lions in the zoo. You don't swing from the trees like the chimpanzees. What kind of an animal are you. I don't remember the other verses, but in the end the singer says something like..oh, I know, you're my shadow.
