Author: They Might Be Giants
Sung by: John Linnell
Length: 2: 5
On Albums: Long Tall Weekend, Unreleased Songs

Moths beat on the windowpane
Telling me I'm not the same
Sounds of nothing, sounds of fear
Speak to me when no one's near

I'm on Rat Patrol
I'm on Rat Patrol

Well, those disappear inside
Floorboards creak and footsteps heard
Headlights turn into the drive
Then disappear into the night

I'm on Rat Patrol
I'm on Rat Patrol

Notes

The Flansburgh version of the song had an altered verse structure but the same lyrics.
