Throughout the summer or 2003, David Letterman has been saying on his Late Night show that New York City has a serious problem with rats, fifty million of them. Obviously the answer is a few good Terriers !
 
        

the New York City Rat Song

(to the tune of "New York, New York")


by Pam Green , © 2003


 

Dave's been spreading the news,
New York's plagued with rats :
There's fifty million rats.
New York, New York !


I am telling New York,
The answer is clear :
You need two dozen Terriers,
New York, New York !


Each Jack Russell and Jill
Thinks rat-killing's a thrill ;
They want to be a part of it,
New York, New York !

      They're snarling "Rats, beware !
      I'll kill more than my share !
      I'm here for you,
      New York, New York ! "
