Lyrics

Glorious opportunity to get rich!!! -- we are starting a cat ranch in lacon
With 100,000 cats. each cat will average 12 kittens a year. the cat skins will
Sell for 30 cents each. one hundred men can skin 5,000 cats a day. we figure a
Daily net profit of over $10,000. now what shall we feed the cats? we will
Start a rat farm next door with 1,000,000 rats. the rats breed 12
Times faster than the cats. so we will have four rats to feed each day to each
Cat. now what shall we feed the rats? we will feed the rats the carcasses of
The cats after they have been skinned

Now get this! we feed the rats to the cats and the cats to the rats and get the
Cat skins for nothing! we feed the rats to the cats and the cats to the rats
And get the cat skins for nothing! we feed the rats to the cats and the cats to
The rats and get the cat skins for nothing!
