[Verse 1: Jamie Stewart]
Rats are loyal to the Earth
Dung beetles are loyal to the Earth
You are less than the rat
And rats will eat anything
Children and dogs
Unable, unsure, unhappy, ungood

[Chorus: Jamie Stewart & Jonathan Meiburg]
Wherever it is, it bothers me all the time
Whomever it is, it bothers me all the time
Whichever it is, it bothers me all the time
Whatever it is, it bothers me all the time

[Post-Chorus: Jonathan Meiburg]
Cries of freedom, cries of pain
Nothing ever free, nothing free of pain

[Verse 2: Jamie Stewart & Jonathan Meiburg]
Caracaras are loyal to the Earth
Coconut crabs are loyal to the Earth
But you are less
Than a crab
Not fine enough to delite
In the glaucous field
A knife, a fork, a bottle, a cork
[Chorus: Jamie Stewart & Jonathan Meiburg]
Wherever it is, it bothers me all the time
Whomever it is, it bothers me all the time
Whichever it is, it bothers me all the time
Whatever it is, it bothers me all the time

[Post-Chorus: Jamie Stewart & Jonathan Meiburg / Both]
Cries of freedom, cries of pain
Everything is free, everything is pain
