Mouth to Mouth Snitches Ride

Snitches are vehicles of word
for they talk of other rats
to shade their own trail

They're like an ocean tide
that carries your doings
to the deepest depths
where trouble soon arises

A snitch's description varies
with each mask—for gossip is
their makeup for living at your expense

It could be anyone
from a friend at work
to someone on the yard
or it might be a cellie
whose tongue is free

So if they seem all right
ya better thing twice
for the hand is quick
to write
