Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Under the hedge they wait
Little hats, big rage
Stone-faced, jaw set hard
Mud on every blade
Moss on their boots
Gravel in their teeth
They’ve had enough of lawns
And all your polished peace
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear the tiny boots
On the garden wall
Hear the iron click
Hear the whole thing crawl
[Chorus]
Gnomes on rats tonight
Gnomes on rats tonight
One yard at a time
They take what’s in sight
Mini rifles high
Mini rifles high
Gnomes on rats tonight
And the whole block sighs
[Verse 2]
They ride through the flower beds
Past the sprinkler line
A caravan of fury
In a perfect crooked line
Mailbox by mailbox
Fence by fence they roll
Sharp red caps in the dark
Cold eyes, iron goal
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear the tiny boots
On the garden wall
Hear the iron click
Hear the whole thing crawl
[Chorus]
Gnomes on rats tonight
Gnomes on rats tonight
One yard at a time
They take what’s in sight
Mini rifles high
Mini rifles high
Gnomes on rats tonight
And the whole block sighs
[Bridge]
At the cul-de-sac
They stop and raise their hands
Old statues in the moonlight
Making war on man
Then the bandoneón
Cuts like a rusty blade
And every porch light trembles
As the tiny kings invade
[Final Chorus]
Gnomes on rats tonight
Gnomes on rats tonight
One yard at a time
They take what’s in sight
Mini rifles high
Mini rifles high
Gnomes on rats tonight
And the whole world sighs
[Outro]
Next yard
Next yard
Keep your chin up, friend
The gnomes don’t sleep
They only win

Tango with driving bandoneón stabs, marcato bass pulse, and a sharp habanera sway; verse leans tense and theatrical, pre-chorus tightens with whispered doubles and rising strings, chorus slams with gang vocals and handclaps. Dark, smoky mix with trumpet snaps, rat-scratch percussion, and a sudden accordion break before the final lift., tango, world
