AN PIERLE - Snakesong lyrics

rate me

Do the best things come first I was in two minds

So I tried my luck in the garden of dusk where the wise snake presides

How was I to know I'd be badly advised

Before I fell from the blistering sky with eyes opened wide

"so" said the snake, "what brings you to me"

He sizzled about lust and the small fare he'd charge as a favour to me

So warm was his breath but so cooling his skin

That I forgot every warning I got, my resistance grew thin

And he said, "soon, baby, soon, baby"

I guess you wonder

I guess you wonder

The best things come first, where was my mind

I should have known that a snake on a throne is bound to beguile

I guess you wonder

I guess you wonder

And the instant you left I knew what not to decide

And the instant you left I knew what not to decide

Lost my innocence due to my otherwise much revered pride

How stupid I was to rely on the snake's advice
