Lyrics

PETE THE PIE RAT

verse
Born on a garbage scow - far away from land
The food we ate was terrible the smell I could hardly stand
Fighting with the seagulls for scraps too small to chew
I needed me some nourishment or soon I would be through

So I made myself a ship - left my neighbourhood behind
Set out on the ocean blue to see what I could find
I was oh so glad to be away from the garbage and the flies
So began my lifelong quest my endless search for pies

chorus
They call me Pete Pete Pete Pete the Pie-Rat
Sailing from sea to sea in search of pies
The name is Pete Pete Pete Pete the Pie-Rat
I?m a rat who likes to float - I?m a rodent on a boat
Pete, Pete the Pie-Rat

verse
I?ve been all over this world - and it should come as no surprise
That I like to sail to Italy to get some pizza pies
I like Rockaberry, chocolate, banana cream pies, they?re all so very sweet
I?ll tell you this, I never met - a pie that I didn?t eat
