The Snake Lyrics
[01:34.27] Rattlesnake said to the copperhead
[01:36.99] "You give us vipers a real bad name"
[01:39.74] You prey on the weakest, you fight for no reason
[01:42.50] No wonder we get blamed
[01:45.31] Copperhead laughed, said "Kiss my ass
[01:47.39] You can bark but there ain't much bite
[01:50.41] You rattle that tail, but it's fear I smell
[01:53.22] I think you're shaking out of fright"
[01:55.30] Rattlesnake, Copperhead
[01:58.23] Either one of them'll kill you dead
[02:00.85] We stay hungry, they get fed
[02:03.80] And don't pass the plate around
[02:06.02] Lie by lie, cheat by cheat
[02:08.72] Venom in smiling teeth
[02:11.66] They just run those forked tongues
[02:14.92] And the whole world's burning down
[02:19.77]
[02:28.26] Copperhead said to the rattlesnake
[02:30.80] "If you ever wanna make it rain
[02:33.49] We could team up, be twice as tough
[02:36.16] Fear will be our game"
[02:39.08] Rattlesnake said to the copperhead
[02:41.70] "You know, we were the original sin
[02:44.15] And I bet you my rattle against your copper
[02:46.94] That the bitch takes the apple again"
[02:49.44] Rattlesnake, Copperhead
[02:52.04] Either one of them'll kill you dead
[02:54.84] We stay hungry, they get fed
[02:57.68] And don't pass the plate around
[03:00.04] Lie by lie, cheat by cheat
[03:02.81] Venom in smiling teeth
[03:05.57] They just run those forked tongues
[03:08.12] And the whole world's burning down
[03:12.83]
[03:32.82] Rattlesnake said to the copperhead
[03:35.64] "Ain't no way they'd win
[03:38.46] 'Cause the mice are sheep and the shepherd's asleep
[03:41.17] And the copperhead said, "Amen"
[03:42.89]
[01:36.99] "You give us vipers a real bad name"
[01:39.74] You prey on the weakest, you fight for no reason
[01:42.50] No wonder we get blamed
