    Lyrics
    This rat trap baby is breaking my neck
    Honey it's stealing my soul
    Struggling through to the end of the day
    Feeling I got no control

    I can't stand to feel this way
    Feet planted in the ground
    Got my songs I got something to say
    Don't want to die in this rat trap town no

    Rat trap town

    A lot of my friends are doing alright
    Paying the rent on time
    Carving out a little slice of life
    A piece of American pie

    I tried to be like them
    Live my life without a sound
    Made a promise yeah I made a vow
    Got to get out of this rat trap town yeah

    Rat trap town

    People saying don't you rock the boat
    Freedom is just an illusion
    I'm old enough to drink I'm old enough to vote
    And I don't want to stay in this rat trap town

    This rat trap baby is making me scared
    Stealing away my soul
    Alarm clock rings shatters my dreams
    I stumble out into the cold

    Stand alone out on the street
    Inspiration lost and found
    Turn my back as the whistle blows
    Going to walk out of this rat trap town

    Rat trap town...
