Strip by: Lubaf

Jon: Garfield, do you know there's a rat in the kitchen?
Garfield: I think so...
Garfield {singing}: There's a rat in mi kitchen / What am I gonna do / There's a rat in mi kitchen / What am I gonna do / I'm gonna fix that rat / That's what I'm gonna do / I'm gonna fix that rat
Jon: I prefer "Red Red Wine", myself
Garfield: Do you know "I Can't Help Falling In Love With You?"

The author writes:

As soon as I saw the original, and I saw we hadn't done this, I knew what I had to do. (For the uninitiated, here's Wikipedia on UB40.)

[See relevant forum thread, of which Lubaf notes "It seems I was much cleverer in my UB40 references in 2013. Although I think I prefer the actual submitted version's third panel." -Ed]

Original strip: 1992-09-28.
