Dirty Work

"Dirty Work" is a song sung by both Big Rat and the Rats in the Italian animated film Lucky and Zorba.

Lyrics

Rats: Dirty work, someone's got to do it
dirty work, now do not you make a fuss
Dirty work, someone's got to do it
Dirty work, and That someone is us

Rich pickings on the dirt pile
Shovelling junk
Rooting through the rubbish
The smell and the funk
Standing on the scrap heap
The Rotten and the bad
Filling up our bellies
Rich pickings to be had

Dirty work, someone's got to do it
dirty work, now do not you make a fuss
Dirty work, someone's got to do it
Dirty work, and That someone is us

Big Rat: Keep on working, keep it going
We grow stronger by the day
As the cats grow soft and lazy
in Their crunchie munchie way
Suffer for succes
And we'll overcome the cats
The time is near Surely
When the city will belong to rats!

Rats: Dirty work, someone's got to do it
dirty work, now do not you make a fuss
Dirty work, someone's got to do it
Dirty work, and That someone is us
