text: Spread the word around
  The rat is leaving town
  The message is a song
  The misery is gone
  Once I had a dream
  To sing before the queen
  She didnt want to know
  She wouldnt see the show
  What a fright
  I couldnt do it right
  Oh what a night
  Mystic Demons fly
  All about the sky
  With memories of a clown
  The saddest show in town
  When I was seventeen
  My mother said to me
  Be careful what you touch
  You shouldnt take so much
  I blew my mind
  She was so kind
  I could have cried
  In my mind
  I had to find
  A kind of new way
  Of being oh so cool
  Like a blue blooded
  Well studded
  English fool
  Speak about the past
  Times are changing fast
  Once I was so weak
  I couldnt even speak
  Shaking out a curse
  Nothing could be worse
  Walking through the door
  Who could ask for more
  Now Im free
  And I can see
  And I can see
  Spread the word around
  The rat is leaving town
  The message is a song
  The misery is gone
  Now Im free
  And I can see
  And I am me
  Please stay away
