Razor Rat

July 28, 2015 by Jim Desiderati

This Kid he played guitar I knew
met him in the Catholic school
really wailed he’s really fast
really gave his riffs a blast

Backus was his band you’d see
playin at the armory
them firehalls just weren’t the same
when his gitar turned to flame

I said, “You really lay it down
play the fattest licks in town
how boutcha show me some of that
he said “Learn where all your A’s are at”

Razor Rat Razor Rat
make your guitar nice and fat
if you wanna play like that
learn where all your Razor Rat

So I went home like he said
played until my fingers bled
jammin till the crack a dawn
superglued my skin back on

played my gitar everynight
nuthin ever felt so right
its all I ever wanna do
play this here gitar for you

Now I practice every day
rememberin what my good friend say
If you wanna play like that
“Learn where all your A’s are at

Razor Rat Razor Rat
make your guitar nice and fat
if you wanna play like that
Learn where all your Razor Rat
