There's a rat in mi kitchen, what am I gonna do?
   There's a rat in mi kitchen, what am I gonna do,
   I'm gonna fix that rat, that's what I'm gonna do
   I'm gonna fix that rat.
  
   When you open your mouth you don't talk, you shout
   And you give everybody the blame,
   But when they catch you up,
   They will shut you up
   And you got no one to blame
  
   There's a rat in mi kitchen, what am I gonna do?
   There's a rat in mi kitchen, what am I gonna do,
   I'm gonna fix that rat, that's what I'm gonna do
   I'm gonna fix that rat.
  
   When you out on the street,
   You practice lies and deceit
   And you scandalize my name
   But when I catch you up
   I'm gonna pull you up
   I'm gonna check-out inside your brain
  
   There's a rat in mi kitchen, what am I gonna do?
   There's a rat in mi kitchen, what ma I gonna do,
   I'm gonna fix that rat, that's what I'm gonna do
   I'm gonna fix that rat.
  
   When you deh pon the scene,
   You make everyone scream
   Because they know you're so unjust
   But when they catch you up
   They will kick you up
   Because you're someone they cannot trust
  
   There's a rat in mi kitchen, what am I gonna do?
   There's a rat in mi kitchen, what am I gonna do,
   I'm gonna fix that rat, that's what I'm gonna do
   I'm gonna fix that rat.
  
   You invade my space
   Make me feel disgraced
   And you just don't give a damn
   If I had my way
   If I had my say
   I'd like to see you hang
