Shannon & The Clams
Half Rat
[Verse 1: Shannon Shaw]
If you came back
Oh, if you came back
Oh, if you came back, my love
Would you still be half rat?
Oh, when you left
You slide down the drain
Got lost in the rain
You'd never be the same
[Chorus: Cody Blanchard & Shannon Shaw]
If you came back, I'd tie a bell around your neck
If you came back, I'd always know where you went
If you came back, I'd tie a bow around your tail
Just like the one that you made for me in jail
If you came back
[Bridge: Cody Blanchard & Shannon Shaw]
I ran away, I didn't want you to know I kissed her
The jailer's daughter, as a payment for a potion (You left me, you disappeared)
She said I'd slip right through the bars (Now I am waiting, still right here)
I'd be her pet, I began to change (If you came back, my love)
I spit it out (Would you still be half rat?)
[Verse 2: Shannon Shaw]
If you came back
Oh, if you came back
Oh, if you came back, my love
Would you still be half rat?
[Chorus: Cody Blanchard & Shannon Shaw]
If you came back, I'd tie a bell around your neck
If you came back, I'd always know where you went
If you came back, I'd tie a bow around your tail
Just like the one that you made for me in jail
If you came back I'd tie a gem around your wrist
So you'd remember the first time we kissed
If you came back, I'd put a flower in your ear
If you came back, so I could smell you when you're near
If you came back
[Outro]
If you came back
If you came back
If you came back
If you came back
