lyrics

Sick and tired
Passive labor
Hiding wounds that will never heal
All in the name of
Working and dying

Katzenjammer
Verbal poison
Never really knowing what’s real
All for the sake of
Living and lying

‘Cause it runs our lives
Situated and complicated
While the charmed survive
And now we’re ready to blow
Yeah we’re ready to blow

You know it’s been so long
Infatuated and domesticated
And we’ve been so wrong
And now we’re ready to blow

Rapid fading
Stunted lifestyle
Only to each other to go
A little heartbreak
Whether I’m singing or sighing

Crowded shoebox
Bitter backslide
Tell me something I didn’t know
A little heartache
When you contemplate trying

Sick and tired!
Passive labor!
Hiding wounds that will never heal!
All in the name of!
Working and dying!

Katzenjammer!
Verbal poison!
Never really knowing what’s real!
All for the sake of!
Living and lying!

‘Cause it’s been so long
Infatuated and domesticated
And we’ve been so wrong
And now we’re ready to blow
Yeah we’re ready to blow

You know it runs our lives
Situated and complicated
While the charmed survive
And now we’re ready to blow

Reap what you sow

And it’s less than fair
Fabricated and aggravated
Maybe unaware
that we’re ready to blow

In the dark
When the whistle blows
And the evening slows
I will reach for you

And our union brings
What they fear
What a year
Is all they’ll say
Until we burn it all down

It’s been too long
We’ve been so wrong
It runs all our lives
While the charmed survive

Ooooo

about

Rat Queen Seattle, Washington

Rat Queen takes a weary look at a world gone insane, asking—will things ever get better, or do we just have to get used to this?

With this greasy brand of grunge-punk alternative, punctuated by smooth production, angular melodics, and uproarious theatrics, Rat Queen douses a global dumpster fire with jaded irreverence, lighthearted wit, and high-decibel intensity.
