lyrics

charming snake

like I’m frozen: in the heat of the sand
i don’t move, an ornamented velvet band
i shine in the sunlight that i enjoy
our babies have been frank zappa’s toy

i slowly will start to move
when i get into the pungi groove
i will rise up, expand my hood
i’d strike, if i only could

cleopatra died through my sister’s bite
that she did so, shows our ancient might
the end we bring is slow and certain
your tissue breaks like an old curtain

remember i am the royal snake

don’t you stare at me, i stare back
and in my alert posture i keep track
of all the movements that you make
remember i am the royal snake
