Oya
Kooroo kooroo kere
(Scratchy scratchy small)
Kooroo kooroo kere
Kooroo kooroo kere


A man see two rat go by
So him go and get di trap


But him no go catch di rat
(But he will not catch the rat)
Him no get security
(He has no security)


In him trap him catch a mole
In him trap him catch a snake


But him no go catch di rat
Him no get security


In him trap him catch a bird
But him no go catch di rat, ra ra


But him no go catch di rat
Him no get security


So him get bigger trap
And him get a bigger bait
And him get a bigger cage
But him no go catch di rat


But him no go catch di rat
Him no get security


In him trap him catch a cat
In him trap him catch a dog


In him trap him catch a goat
Me no go catch di rat, ra ra


But him no go catch di rat
Him no get security


So him get a bigger cage
So di rat he cannot run
And him make this cage so big
And him fit himself inside


But him no go catch di rat
Him no get security


Dis man go inside him cage
And him lock the door behind


But him no go catch di rat
Him no get security


And he peek from behind bars
And he see two rats go by


But him no go catch di rat
