Church - Reptile lyrics

rate me

Too dangerous to keep.<br />

Too feeble to let go.<br />

And you want to bite the hand.<br />

Should have stopped this long ago.<br />

<br />

Go now, you've been set free.<br />

Another month or so you'll be gorging on me ("poisoning me" on 2nd and 3rd times)<br />

With your lovely smile.<br />

I see you slither away with your skin and your tail,<br />

Your flickering tongue and your rattling scales<br />

Like a real reptile.<br />

<br />

Had you coiled around my arm.<br />

How could you ever know<br />

How I loved your diamond eyes?<br />

But that was long ago. (Chorus)<br />

<br />

And I should have believed Eve.<br />

She said we had to blow.<br />

She was the apple of my eye.<br />

It wasn't long ago. (Chorus)
