No animals were harmed during filming, even when they BARST into human ninjas or danced vigorously to the music like some sort of cockatoo! All animals were trained, courteous professionals, and brought professional human handlers to watch them.

LYRICS:
[angelic, beckoning hum]
[rat hum, equally angelic despite species difference]
[human hum]
[rat hum approaching nearer]
When you're far away from home
Just hum this melody
You'll know you're not alone
You'll see!
A tiny hairy friend
Will help you on your way

They've come to save us
Noble, magic rats
The smallest are the bravest
They always have your back

It's whoop-ass time
Get in line
It's whoop-ass time
[ancient yodel of justice and comeuppance]
It's whoop-ass time

When you think you're by yourself
Just know they're all around
Always there to help
When you're down
And even when you sleep
They watch over you
From within 20 feet
It's true

They've come to save us
Noble, magic rats
The smallest are the bravest
They always have your back

It's whoop-ass time
Get in line
It's whoop-ass time
[ancient yodel of peace, justice, and wisdom]
It's whoop-ass time

Some people don't like rats
Because they hang out in trash
But they're helping you with your pizza crust
So you should fucking relax

It's whoop-ass time
Get in line
It's whoop-ass time
[ancient yodel of peace, justice, and wisdom]
It's whoop-ass time
