A Snake In The Shower |
It seems like you’ve already decided |
I don’t think that there’s much to discuss |
Well, we’ve been in between places |
We’ve mostly been staying at some house in the mountains her friend isn’t using |
She said he used to be a pretty huge producer |
He doesn’t seem that huge anymore |
We found a torch in the drawer |
We found the foil on the floor |
There was blood on the buttons when I picked up the phone |
Oh, what happens is you claw out your sensors |
Then you don’t know what you should feel |
And your body’s just another container |
And your blood is just part of the deal |
There’s scratching at the walls in the wheelhouse |
And it sounded like it’s trapped under ice |
Remember when we thought this was better? |
There was a snake in the shower last night |
We dug in pretty deep and we were almost asleep when someone put a brick |
through the window |
Say what you will, man, I don’t think that there’s much to discuss |
Battle burns, cinnamon |
Colfax and Sheridan |
Covered up in ticker tape |
Newfangled American man |
The doctors hooked you up to computers to figure out where we went wrong |
The technician put on Cat and the Cobra |
The nurses laid down on the lawn |
What happens is you pull out your sensors |
Then you can’t tell the key from the kite |
You fool around with thunder and lightning |
There was a snake in the shower last night |
Before we left the city we went out to some party |
Before we hit the party we stopped off for supplies |
There was a kid on the corner with a coat of many colors |
He said, «You want to be tamed? |
You want to get wild?» |
Pulled a stem from his sleeve, said, «Try one of these |
You’ll dream like a king, little child» |
Then he smiled |
Someone made a joke that seemed hopeful |
About things that go bump in the night |
At first it kind of picked up the party |
And then it kind of ruins your life |
What happens when you snuff out the candle? |
It’s mostly just an absence of light |
Death is a complete loss of power |
There was a snake in the shower last night |
