Serpent

LYRICS
The serpent slipped
The serpent slid
Hard to believe… what the serpent did
No matter how miraculous
It was to all of us
We just couldn’t take
Faking with a snake

We would have been fine
If he had a spine
‘stead we raised a fuss
’cause he’s not one of us
No matter how marvelous
… tossed under the bus
We just couldn’t fake
That we could take a snake

A man that speaks with forked tongue
Days are numbered to being young
Speaking from both sides it’s said
Will likely wind you up dead
