Modest Mouse - King Rat Lyrics

What the hell happened to us

I wanna party with sentient whale people now 🥳

I remember this traumatized me as a child

I just realized... the vocals sound like Brak... 😳

00:41 Sabes como le falta? Jajaja

Pete Buttigieg

This makes me wanna kill wales

Ikr, that fuckers... I had pity because people were killing them, but now... after watching this video, I discovred they are also doing that in a parallel world, so they will get what they were asking for here.

That feeling when you've finally found the song you've been searching for.

Mt bom, eu e meu filhao adoramos !

kkkkk tadinho to deu filho

@Glauco Villas Boas jkhgjkghkjghkj

@Lazy Wizzard Eu ri porque espero que seja brincadeira sua, crianças não deveriam ver videos violentos, isso pode afetar o desenvolvimento deles, é por isso que filmes, musicas e jogos tem uma classificação etária.


Mas parece que você não estava brincando, voce realmente deixou uma criança assistir isso, parabéns, pai do ano. Depois dessa você deveria mostrar pro teu filho um documentário sobre como animais são maltratados e mortos cruelmente na produção de carne bovina, avária e suína? Que tal mostrar pro teu filhão como é que eles são mortos, mostrar as galinhas presas a vida toda colocando ovos e depois quebrando o pescoço delas quando elas estão velhas, apra a porra do teu filho comer um bolo de aniversário feito com esses ovos.


Que tal você mostrar essas cenas explícitas e traumatizar a porra do teu filho logo na infância seu filho de uma puta do caralho retardado.

@Glauco Villas Boas eu n tenho filhos kjhkfgjhkfgjhfkjg

DemAAAAAAAAAAAAis!

I discovered them from a great friend when I was 17, I don't speak to him anymore but I'm 28 now and have listened to them for 11 years. They generate the lovely memories of our time together ❤🤼‍♂️

*2:52*
*Oh yes I love this animation*

Honestly a creepy video all around tho

This has such a unique vibe

Before Heath Ledger death in January 2008, he
 had started working on this music video

лайкни, если посмотрел в 2019. sea shepherd красавцы

WHALE!!?!!

WELL!!!!!!

so basically in our universe the sun is a whale right ?

Not sure, I have never looked to the sun for more than a few seconds, because it's so bright I can't see if it has a face or not.


Although, I don't think the universe of the video is the OPPOSITE of ours, I mean, they can turn the sun into a basket ball, doesn't mean the sun in our universe is a foot ball.

Whale!!

What?
Why i can't watch it in Russia!? :<
*sadly noises*

Yum human meat

Gran canción papá

Well!
Well!
Well!
Well!
We spun like birds on fire right down towards the residence and I
I took all that I desired, even crooks have to pay the rent.
We swam like rats on fire right, right down the reservoir
We took all that we could carry but we tried to carry more.
And you know you know you know it all went wrong.
And you know you know you know it was all wrong.
We choked on street tap water well I'm gonna have to try the real thing
I took your laugh by the collar and it knew not to swing.
Anytime I tried an honest job well the till had a hole and ha-ha
We laughed about payin' rent 'cause the county jails they're free.
And you know you know you know it all went wrong.
And you know you know you know it was all wrong.
Deep water, deep water
Senseless denial
I went down like a rag doll as you would, child
Deep water, deep water
Senseless denial
I went down like a rag doll as you would, child
Oh, lucky lucky lucky lucky me again.
I said it looks like I've got to use my feet again
Well I just spent my last one-hundred dollars
God I'll pay my bill again
Oh, I don't care
Oh, how I just don't care.
Deep water, deep water
Senseless denial
I went down like a rag doll shooken and shy
Deep water, deep water
Senseless denial
I went down like a rag doll rat of a child
Well King rat has me on his list again
I can never be on the fence again
I found out it's all loud
Open like an organ and it
Talk, talk, talk, talk again
He promised me that when I cheated him
But I could open my eye well
Lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky,
Lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky me again.
Deep water, deep water
This senseless denial
I got fed like a fish, full of open smiles
Blue water, deep water
Oh senseless denial
I got fed like a fish on the cardboard smiles
Well well
What do you have to say for yourself?
I said, well well
Well?
I said well, well, well, well!
Lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky me again.
I hardly knew I should use my feet again
What do you have to say for yourself?
What do you have to say for yourself?

Can’t say we don’t deserve this

It's kill or be killed, look what they are doing to us in a parallel universe

i have a phobia of whales and i think that this video makes it rational

Whats Lerdo,go you

Heath Ledger: I have this half-finished animation about how whaling is bad. Do you have any songs that would fit?
Isaac Brock: We got this one about a criminal constantly returning to his life of crime. It mentions fish and water metaphorically a couple of times.
Heath Ledger: Perfect.

Quartz fr tho 😂

Also Heath Ledger: dead

Omg the fish.. it screamed

Rest in peace Heath Ledger. 2019

Whales are the humans and humans are the whales.

No shit Sherlock?!

not really, whales are dead

Well. That..... that escalated quickly. 😓😕😟😐




Catchy song tho.🙄

Director: So how many drugs should I take?
Modest Mouse: wELL

Heath Ledger

Wow I use to watch this video when I was really young on repeat

I used to love whales. Now... Now I crave vengeance

No One’s First And You’re Next Level 4
7 King Rat 5:30
8 I’ve Got It All (Most)

I'm in love with this song for the pure sinisterness in Isaac's singing – as in he doesn't even need lyrics to sound like a psycho, his voice does it all! And I desperately wish there are more singers like him.

I can't believe this video is already 10 years old :(

*Heath Ledger again at his finest for creating the idea for this video*

How is this not age restricted?

I don't think people are really understanding this video, it's a great song that goes perfectly. This song is about the world is just is the way it is because we are all animals, and yes even us humans. We keep wanting more and more til we have nothing, and then take it out on the others by wiping them out of their existence and go through the cycle again. We live to die.

United States Prison Industrial Complex

Its most horror music vedio...its the same thing which human do fish fishes...hatts off to the makers for narrating human deeds

Amo esto

cade os brs com bom gosto musical aq nos comentarios???

What kind of whales are those ? Blue? Humpback? Fin?

i have a fear of whales and this fuels it. so now i have a reason to fear em, too interesting concept regardless

This ended with "What do you have to say for yourself?"

I mean, come on, the meaning here is so obvious. I keep hearing people joke about it but I'm worried it's actually blown over most people's heads.

I can’t stop listening to this song

What a sick, twisted, fucked up video. No wonder Ledger offed himself!!!

Top 5 favorite songs from them

Nobody:
Whales: Reverse UNO card

This is a no talent bunch of people I mean these guys suck

Heath Ledger

The absurdity

What race are these cruel whales?

Heath is the man!

@Jake piss off

dogshit

This was not actually directed by Ledger. According to Wikipedia, Ledger and Brooks came up with the video together down to the last detail, on a boat during a MM tour. Heath then died.

They completed Heath's vision and credited him as a director.

As another fact correction, this is actually about the whaling going on off the coast of Australia, not Japan, although obviously the symbolism hardly cares.

Tayl Fyfe it should be noted that the whalers are Japanese, hunting within the Australian Whale Sanctuary

@8989Robo It should! I didn't know that!

Tayl Fyfe Norway and Japan are the only countries that ignore the international moratorium on whaling, this really troubling for conservationists, because ‘if we can’t protect whales then what can we protect’

the sun out here lookin like the grinch

this video is clearly propaganda against whales ive never seen whales act like this

as a shilsh i really like this

he digs the art in this one

Directed by Heath Ledger

Just wait till this is a jojo thing

perfect beach song, am i right?

That’s what whale happen when animals outsmart humans

Que buen video.

This song saved my life

OH SHIT THAT TURNED

Thank god were not fish.

I only understand like 5 or 6 words of this shit but it sounds nice💀💀

Cool now I feel like shit lol

I like to listen to this when I'm angry, I'm not sure why

Issac brock has an aspergers obsession with the sea

Fucka you Whale and fucka you Dolphin!

South park references 😂😂

@Nathann Hardric Spot on, Nathann! :)

You know it was all wrong. You knew it was wrong

bacicaly what we do to fish

Yeah they just switched the land creatures from looking like humans to looking the way the sea creatures look, and switched the sea creatures to look like humans. Other than that it's exactly what really happens.

Damn the new season of flapjack looks dark.

go vegan.

Now I wanna eat a whale to show dominance

Why is this song so damn good

Coz its by modest mouse

Of course Heath Ledger directed the video of one of the greatest fucking songs ever.

I've been searching for this song for the longest.

I watched this video for the first time last night while on 2 hits of acid. I was so confused!

SteelformRarity I can definitely see how this video could make that happen! If I wasn’t super experienced with psychedelics I think it might have happened to me.

@Fake celebrity news I've only ever tripped like 3 times and my highest dose was 300 micros but all the times have been very pleasant and eye opening especially when I went out to an old nature trail and did it I feel like its very suited for the outdoors

SteelformRarity Hell yeah! It will open your mind to so many more ideas! It makes nature so much more beautiful as well. I think shrooms even more so. The 2 are very similar, they just have their slight differences. I feel like shrooms is definitely more spiritual.

@Fake celebrity news I'll have to try them sometime

SteelformRarity I would definitely recommend them! They can fill your mind with positively and help you see past all the media bullshit that’s fed to us everyday.

the fuck did you lace my drink with?

Theory: this is a future timeline from tellytubbies as the sun has a face just like in the show except here it’s shown to be a adult. In short: this is the same universe as tellytubbies lmao

Heath was such an undeniable genius. Much love 💕

There were no rats at all in this video, let alone a King 0/10

this still feels like it should be called 'new modest mouse' and it's ten years old.

i mean i get it, but ew

who misses heath ledger?
