Lyrics

You're a snake Not one of those nice ones That won't harm you in the garden Not a python That smothers you with love Till you are long gone Not even a rattler That gives you a warning Before they fill you with venom to die But a cottonmouth viper That lurks in the water You bask in the comfort 'till the quick goodbye Oh, you shot me with poison Where I would die slowly So lucky the antidote Gave me my life The needle it filled me With good friends and loveliness Rid me the sorrows Of your toxic bite You said we were equals I wanted you better It shames me to say That she could be your wife I was just a small mouse That thought I was bigger And now you've created A creature of strife I'll bite you I'll tear right into your skin Cause you twisted me into The shape that I'm in Tell me what do you see me as A viper, a critter? That slithers around Tryin' to steal your dinner Oh, you shot me with poison Where I would die slowly So lucky the antidote Gave me my life The needle it filled me With good friends and loveliness Rid me the sorrows Of your toxic bite Oh, you shot me with poison Where I would die slowly So lucky the antidote Gave me my life The needle it filled me With good friends and loveliness Rid me the sorrows Of your toxic bite Oh, you shot me with poison Where I would die slowly So lucky the antidote Gave me my life The needle it filled me With good friends and loveliness Rid me the sorrows Of your toxic bite
