The rats on / this earth / have nothing on you
An insect / to those which / crawl the sewers

Devourer, plunderer, deceptor

Sniff out a / scheme / and leave the scraps behind
Voracious ? insatiate ? a nose attuned to greed

Devourer, plunderer, deceptor

Evade all traps
And come out gnashing, snarting,
Gnashing, snarting !

Disguise are many
Media palm or man in the street.

They'll scavenge your emotions
And leave you diseased
They'd steal a last possession
And smile as you concede

Devourer, plunderer, deceptor
