Hello Joe here is a copy of the words to Rats in the Chamber.

RATS IN THE CHAMBER
(Angie Wright)

Rats in the chamber snakes in the grass
Truth in the garbage whisky in the glass
Leaks in the main pipe holes in the floor
Life on the slide again banging at the door


Whispers in the mens club sneering in the car
vile words and images cocktails at the bar
Anger in the back street graffiti in the hall
Disempowered voices ringing off the wall

Schemes in the boardroom pervert on the screen
Violence in cyberspace faces never seen
Cracks in the pavement sinking through the hole
Hunger in the heartland sickness in the soul

Sharp double dealers on the greasy climb
Liars and charlatans wading through the slime
Poison in the undergrowth toxins in the air
Leper in the alleyway dying in the glare

Rats in the Chamber snakes in the glass
Parties in the garden whisky in the glass
Siren cuts the darkness crying in the night
Better run for cover or brace yourself to fight.

Angie is pleased if you use it. Just mention the source.

The song originally did not have the " parties in the garden" in it however with the current situation in UK makes it a valid alternative.
