lyrics

There’s a rat in the kitchen and he’s eatin’ my cheese
Eatin’ my cheese, eatin’ my cheese
A rat in the kitchen and he’s eatin’ my cheese
Eatin’ my cheese alright

There’s a snake in the cellar and he’s drinkin’ my wine
Drinkin’ my wine, drinkin’ my wine
A snake in the cellar and he’s drinkin’ my wine
Drinkin’ my wine alright

Well I ain’t gonna let ya keep on eatin’ and eatin’ and eatin’
Ain’t gonna let ya keep on takin’ and takin’ and takin’
I’m gonna treat ya like the mouse that you are
Creepin’ in and eatin’ up my house you are
I ain’t gonna stand it
I am gonna turn ya out crack snap trap
This is my home step back!


There’s a moth in the closet and he’s eatin’ my clothes
A mole in my garden and he’s chewin’ my hose
A bird in the attic and he’s stealin’ my song
A man at the door and his motive is wrong

Oh bankers, lawyers, thieves!
Gov’ners, mayors, police!

……………………………………

Oh bankers, lawyers, thieves!
Cheaters, dealers, disease!

No I ain’t gonna let ya keep on eatin’ and eatin’ and eatin’
Ain’t gonna let ya keep on takin’ and takin’ and takin’
I’m gonna treat ya like the mouse that you are
Creepin’ in and eatin’ up my house you are
I ain’t gonna stand it
I am gonna turn ya out crack snap trap
This is my home step back!

My Brightest Diamond Detroit, Michigan

Musical firebrand Shara Nova (formerly Worden) has continued to weave her own way through pop, experimental and classical worlds, this time landing squarely on the dance floor with A Million And One. Nova has marshaled the influences of a youth spent listening to Detroit radio into a visceral love letter to the city, an electronic pop record both vulnerable and full of a fierce fighter's spirit. ... more
