Snake Song

Snake Song
 He lied when he laid
 With a down trodden babe
 He lied, oh, he lied to me
 He lied when he tripped
 When he broke, when he ran
 With the shirt on his back and the money in his hand
 He went down on his belly
 And he slithered 'round the floor
 Should've known better
 Always done it before
 And he laughed
 Always do it some more
 He lied when he kissed a poor, lonely miss
 He lied, oh, he lied to me
 He lied when he kicked
 When he broke with a shout
 Then he took me by the hand and he dragged me all about
 He went down on his belly
 And he slithered like a creep
 Through the alleys and the gutters
 Down the cold, hard streets
 He said I should've known better
 Said I, yes, I, oh, I should've known
 He lied from the start when he stole my heart
 He lied, oh, he lied to me
 He lied when he switched
 When he broke with his teeth
 Then he brought this fruit and he laid it at my feet
 He went down on his belly
 And he slithered up a tree
 He wiggled and he hissed
 When he kissed my cheek
 He said I should've known better
 What a feral beast
