Them Crooked Vultures - Reptiles |
|
I tried to make a break |
|
What a fool |
|
I should've known I never listen |
|
I'm in a cage An animal I'm in a cage |
|
But the reptiles |
|
They won't let me go |
|
I think they want you to stray |
|
Watch the monkey dance |
|
Give 'em a taste |
|
Look at him he's always smiling |
|
Help me to escape |
|
Your mouth agape |
|
You foreign tourist |
|
Woe is me, it will be a funeral |
|
A circus, I'll rap on the cell door |
|
Questions are a fire |
|
That needs feeding to survive |
|
So just you let those flames die down |
|
Trained by consequence and the lash |
|
It leaves me breathless |
|
Their prais is a poison to us all |
|
In the moonlight their scars flash like jewelry |
|
Get too precious |
|
Get locked up in a cage |
|
Want to get,gotta risk any move |
|
misconstrued and you're screwed |
|
Tongues flash and flick as if they're screaming |
|
Oh they lie just like any lover |
|
Oh do they, those kisses will burn |
|
Under the lights |
|
They snap a finger |
|
You jump, you answer |
|
Like a naive hooker with a big dumb smile |
|
For the reptiles |
|
I guess you'll never know |
|
They won't let you go |
|
Cause you're the soup du'jour. that's for sure |
|
Questions are a fire |
|
That needs feeding to survive |
|
So just you let those flames die down |
|
See them reptiles crawl? |
|
Getting closer |
|
Why won't someone come to drive them away? |
|
Don't rest too long |
|
It's a mistake we can't take back |
|
Take one lying down for a change |
|
And oh it's like cleaning up after an orgy |
|
When it's over |
|
I wish someone would burn this place |
|
To the ground |
