PYTHONESQUE

Strutting in the same line

Swell my heels trodding lethal gum

Tapping sensibilities

Tripping me til I blow

And though the moon weighs down my wagon

It's sure damn nice to look at

I'm the executive

Though the fulcrum don't rest tight

That's the to and fro of my will

Hey hey shock that kid

Tell him that his bottle capsized quick

Nobody could read what he wanted

Now he's hard pressed in the Earth

Only significant as he was stout

And the flush as it lays now

I want every dime for him to be peace without restraint

And he has so much to give and he shouldn't

Ransacking his own life

But look at his face all shine

Could you give him the moment

That everybody wants a bit of

I've got money

And the snake bites

I've got money

And the snake bites

I've got money

A pelt tested for the crest of the caste

Shelved in a collapsing bunker

It's a safeguard for all honesty

So I can grow without getting over it

I'd seize the means if they were simple

But a higher power hasn't meddled

Happiness smears too wide for our comprehension

So what to make of our share

And I've got no place to go and I shouldn't

Be anywhere when I can't get my foot out of the past

So I'm cycling through every corner

The boy lingering he's gotta die

I've got money

And the snake bites

I've got money

And the snake bites

I've got money

And the snake bites back

And I've got so much to give and I shouldn't

And yet no place to go

Well I shouldn't

Living for too many things that I shouldn't

Leaving my thoughts astray where they don't belong

Strutting the short changed line

But you couldn't tell from the tint of my soul

Pulverize that beast of burden with a shotgun shell

Gold chain to force you down the putrid well

And when all is dry dangle in fear

You're not jabbed enough for what's down there

Maybe later maybe later maybe later maybe later

Maybe later kill yourself

I've got money

And the snake bites

I've got money

And the snake bites

I've got money

And the snake bites

I've got money

And the snake bites

I've got money

And the snake bites

I've got money

The snake bites

I've got money

It bites it bites it bites it bites

It bites it bites it bites it bites it bites

And the snake bites back
