Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Too dangerous to keep
Too feeble to let go
And you want to bite the hand
Should have stopped this long ago
[Verse 2]
Go now, you've been set free
Another month or so, you've been gorgin' on me
Your lovely smile
I see you slither away with your skin and your tail
Your flickerin' tongue and your rattlin' scales
Like a real reptile
[Verse 3]
Had you coiled around my arm
How could you ever know
How I loved your diamond eyes?
But that was long ago
[Verse 4]
Go now, you've been set free
Another month or so, you'll be poisoning me
Your lovely smile
I see you slither away with your skin and your tail
Your flickerin' tongue and your rattlin' scales
Like a real reptile
[Verse 5]
I should have believed Eve
She said we had to blow
She was the apple of my eye
It wasn't long ago
[Verse 6]
Go now, you've been set free
Another month or so, you'll be poisoning me
Your lovely smile
I see you slither away with your skin and your tail
Your flickerin' tongue and your rattlin' scales
Like a real reptile
[Verse 7]
Oh, go, go now, you've been set free
Another month or so, you'll be poisoning me
Your lovely smile
I see you slither away with your skin and your tail
Your flickerin' tongue and your rattlin' scale
Like a real reptile
