LYRICS
\nThe serpent slipped
\nThe serpent slid
\nHard to believe… what the serpent did
\nNo matter how miraculous
\nIt was to all of us
\nWe just couldn’t take
\nFaking with a snake<\/p>\n

We would have been fine
\nIf he had a spine
\n‘stead we raised a fuss
\n’cause he’s not one of us
\nNo matter how marvelous
\n… tossed under the bus
\nWe just couldn’t fake
\nThat we could take a snake<\/p>\n

A man that speaks with forked tongue
\nDays are numbered to being young
\nSpeaking from both sides it’s said
\nWill likely wind you up dead<\/p>\n
