Cobra Tattoo

Lyrics

Sun just clearing the tree line when my day begins
 Slippery ice on the bridges, northeastern wind coming in
 You will bruise my head, I will strike your heel
 Drive past woods of northern pine, try not to let go of the wheel
 Dream at night
 Girl with the cobra tattoo
 On her arm
 Its head flaring out like a parachute
 Prisms in the dewdrops in the underbrush
 Skate case sailors' purses floating down in the black needle rush
 Higher than the stars I will set my throne
 God does not need Abraham, God can raise children from stones
 Dream at night
 Girl with the cobra tattoo
 And try to hear
 The garbled transmissions coming through
