lyrics

Sleepin' in a city where the snakes are lovers
Everybody's tangled underneath the covers
Try to hide your tongue behind your teeth
So when you finally bite there'll be venom underneath

But only in the moment will I dare to fess up
Wish I was like every sucker playin' dress up
Everybody cookin' by the book
The cowboys get the checks all I gets the dirty looks

I think it's safe to say
This ain't the easy way
Just let these caterpillars crawl

I’m not taking it to bed
I know you know
Is it hummin in your head?
I know you know
You don't gotta be afraid
I know you know
You can take it anyway
I know you know

Color me the victim of my own ambition
Carried the embarrassment and quit the friction
Never saw the reason for the rush
And I don't see it now, all I think abouts the crush

Cause there’s a cold wind blowin
There’s a hiss in the mornin’
Cause there ain’t no glory
Oh you’ve heard this story?

Well…you’re gonna get your way
Sever communique
And let these caterpillars crawl

I've followed Matt since I first discovered the Pink Spiders back in 2006. I have to say, I've been impressed with every album I've heard that he's been part of. This one is no exception. Love every song on it. little_razorblade
