Song lyrics

Send "Year Of The Rat" ringtones to your cell

June is on the run for so long
Pushed and pulled then shunned it was so wrong 
These 4 walls crashing in won't stop me now
Cos I'm alive, I'm out tonight, all night. 

Everybody needs to know its the year of the rat
Everyday we've got to hold on
Cos if we hold on we could find some new energy 

Streets with flags unfurled like treasure
Thank me for me for my words its a pleasure
Just ask me to stay coz ill be gone
But it's alright, I'm okay, always 

Everybody needs to know it's the year of the rat 
Every day we've got to hold on 
Cuz if we hold on we could find some new energy 

One plus one is one together 
One plus one is one forever 
One plus one is one together 
One plus one is one forever 

Everybody needs to know it's the year of the rat 
Everybody needs to know it's the year of the rat 
Everybody needs to know it's the year of the rat 
Everybody needs to know it's the year of the rat 
Everyday we've got to hold on 
Cuz if we hold on we could find some new energy
