Cobra

Lyrics

Cobra comes up next to me
 Anywhere he goes, he's silently
 How do you take speaking so much?
 How do you live without a lover's touch?
 Dale always says it's easy
 I'm hooked on four like one, two, three
 I got them moves, declared to me
 You need to listen cuz I guarantee you're for sure
 Now I know I've been movin' too much
 I'm gonna live for my hottie's touch
 How do you take him speaking so much?
 How do you live without a lover's touch?
 Covered in charcoal, head to toe
 Sticky, stick charcoal, I want you to know
 How I long till I get these off
 They're so convenient but at such a cost
 King I go out to plead
 Sticky, sticky warmth, come and rush to me
 I want to know, I want to see
 There's life for me
 Oh how I long till I get these off
 They're so convenient but at such a cost.
 I know somebody, yes, I know someone
 Who loves to wait, loves to wait for the policeman to come.
 I know somebody, yes, I know them well
 And I'm aware of the thought they call ringing the bell
 Four on the floor and four in the air
 I'm drinkin' cold, cold lightning with the bugs in my hair
 I knew a partner, yes, I knew his house (now)
 I know somebody, yes, I know someone
 Who likes to wait, likes to wait for the policeman to come.
 I know somebody, yes, I know them well
 And I'm aware of the thought they call ringing the bell
 Four on the floor and four in the air
 I'm drinkin' cold, cold lightning with the bugs in my hair
 I knew a partner, yes, I knew his house
 Why do my toes always feel so cold?
 How come? How come? How come?
 Why's all the soap always burn like a rope?
 How come? How come? How come?
 When I see your reflection, it always frightens me
 So strong that I can hardly speak.
 How come?
 Mixed up potion, the summer's ocean
 I feel I'm swimming in tannin lotion
 Too many car chairs, and not enough leads
 How come? How come? How come?
 Thank you for all the sleep
 So I know the spark's aside
 Stuff that keeps me clean
 Stuff that helps me breathe
 The lamps, the lights, the kerosene
 Beautiful, two gardenias spring
 How come?
 Why does all the soap always burn like the rope?
 How come? How come? How come?
 Why's all my toes always seem so cold?
 How come? How come? How come?
