Pressed Rat and Warthog Lyrics

Pressed Rat and Warthog have closed down their shop.
They didn't want to, 'twas all they had got.
Selling atonal apples, amplified heat,
And Pressed Rat's collection of dog legs and feet.

Sadly they left, telling no one goodbye.
Pressed Rat wore red jodhpurs, Warthog a striped tie.
Between them they carried a three-legged sack,
Went straight round the corner and never came back.

The bad Captain Madmitt had ordered their flight.
He laughed, stomped off--- with a nautical gait.
The gait turned into a derogatory,
And his pegleg got woodworm, and broke into three.

Pressed Rat and Warthog have closed down their shop.
They didn't want to, 'twas all they had got.
Selling atonal apples, amplified heat,
And Pressed Rats collection of dog legs and feet.

Cover art for Pressed Rat and Warthog lyrics by Cream

I've never been good at hearing lyrics but it doesn't seem to me that it's "atonal apples and amplified heat". It seems to me like "atimer apples", whatever that is, "and amplified hate", which makes more sense to me.

Amplified hate? Atimer? Nah, man, nah. I don't know if you're listening to a bad mix or on ipod earbuds or some other crappy thing, but he very clearly says "atonal apples" and "amplified heat". When in doubt, go with what has the stronger rhyme. "Hate" and "feet"? Ehh, that's really weak compared to "Heat". Also, go with the word the actually exists and means something, like "atonal".
