Lyrics The Mongoose and the Snake - Cherry Poppin' Daddies

The Mongoose and the Snake

This is the house where they used to be lovers
The real estate agent has closed
He sits with himself in his car for a moment
It’s stuffed with confusion like it’s sick with everything he owns
Another cold reminder of the heat my friend
Or just a thrown-off comment that could knock her off her feet again
Don’t apologize and why compromise
You know that neither one will back down and never will break
The Mongoose and the Snake
This was dream that they thought they believed in
This was the prison they chose
Dying inside is a smile’s anaconda
It’s squeezing them senseless till they choked up their black plastic rose
Time rushes by believe me
No ties that bind come easy
We’re drowning victims of this agony, this ecstasy
You versus me
Time rushes by and in the
Blink of an eye you wither
Rich talk gets followed up by
A straight faced hypocrisy
Up till the time he was drunk and he spit in her face
