Chorus:
Am                    E
Oh I think I smell a rat
                      Am
Oh I think I smell a rat

Am
All you little kids
Seem to think you know
                E
Just where it's at
                      Am
Oh I think I smell a rat
Walking down the street
                     E
Carrying a baseball bat
                      Am
Oh I think I smell a rat

Chorus

All you little kids
Seem to think you know
Just where is at
Oh I think I smell a rat
Using your mother and father
For a welcome mat
Oh I think I smell a rat
