"Rats" is a song by Pearl Jam from their album Vs. The song talks about how rats work together to accomplish a common goal, with the implication that humans do not and could learn from rats.
At the end of the song, the line "Ben, the two of us need look no more" is repeated several times. This line can also be found in the #1 single "Ben" by Michael Jackson, from the film of the same name.
