now, granted, I was introduced to this song via the context of it being about a literal rat, which isn't self-evident in the lyrics, but I'm still a little fascinated at the song Ben having a bunch of lines about, like, 'other people all hate you and reject you and think you're gross but I like you, they just don't get it' and how many of the comments on the youtube vid for it are like 'just like my beloved son ben 🥺💕'

#admittedly I am exaggerating the phrasing but 'you feel you're not wanted anywhere' and 'most people would turn you away'#does feel like it makes more sense to say about a wild rat than your human son #certainly a kinder thing to say to a rat than to your child #anyway it's tentatively going on felix's playlist but he's the ben in this song #I guess I'm not sure who the singer is in that case. melliwyk I suppose until the campaign gets underway and he makes Real Friends #about me #my OCs #felix
