Reptile

Lyrics

Too dangerous to keep
 
 Too feeble to let go
 And you want to bite the hand
 Should have stopped this long ago
 Go now, you've been set free
 Another month or so you'll be gorging on me
 With your lovely smile
 I see you slither away with your skin and your tail
 Your flickering tongue and your rattling scales
 Like a real reptile
 ♪
 Had you coiled round my arm
 
 How could you ever know?
 
 How I loved your diamond eyes
 But that was long ago
 Go now, you've been set free
 Another month or so you'll be poisoning me
 With your lovely smile
 I see you slither away with your skin and your tail
 Your flickering tongue and your rattling scales
 Like a real reptile
 ♪
 And I should have believed Eve
 She said we had to blow
 She was the apple of my eye
 It wasn't long ago
 Go now, you've been set free
 Another month or so you'll be poisoning me
 With your lovely smile
 I see you slither away with your skin and your tail
 Your flickering tongue and your rattling scales
 Like a real reptile, oh
 Go, go now, you've been set free
 Another month or so you'll be poisoning me
 With your lovely smile
 I see you slither away with your skin and your tail
 Your flickering tongue and your rattling scales
 Like a real reptile
