Street Rats
Abu and Al, they rule the streets,
Thieves unlike any other.
Know when the time has come to pounce,
Know when to hide in cover.
…
The palace guards, they can't keep up,
The pair make them enraged.
One step ahead, the street rats are,
Their foes they disrepage.
…
The city folk, they let them pass,
They chortle at the fun.
Every time they see a chase,
They already know who's won.
…
And at last they shake them off,
Evaded foes' attacks.
Now the time has come to both dig in,
To savour spoils and relax.
