Rattlesnake
Rattlesnake, rattlesnake
My brain is full of evil dreams
Unseen across my path you quake
And rattle like a tambourine
Hidden in the rustling reeds
And unseen threat my mind espies
I feel the keen bite at my heel
And upon this darkened path I'll die
To those who would offer advice
On how to tread unhallowed ground
Rather than to roll the dice
That makes a rustling, rattling sound
Who straight ahead would travel right
And not inside the darkness dwell
I know that I should heed your words
But I don't listen very well
Rattlesnake, rattlesnake
Play your song in triple time
For when you stop, for Heaven's sake
The dance that ends, it will be mine
Rattlesnake, rattlesnake
My brain is full of evil dreams
Unseen across my path you quake
And rattle like a tambourine
My brain is full of evil dreams
Unseen across my path you quake
And rattle like a tambourine
Hidden in the rustling reeds
And unseen threat my mind espies
I feel the keen bite at my heel
And upon this darkened path I'll die
To those who would offer advice
On how to tread unhallowed ground
Rather than to roll the dice
That makes a rustling, rattling sound
Who straight ahead would travel right
And not inside the darkness dwell
I know that I should heed your words
But I don't listen very well
Rattlesnake, rattlesnake
Play your song in triple time
For when you stop, for Heaven's sake
The dance that ends, it will be mine
Rattlesnake, rattlesnake
My brain is full of evil dreams
Unseen across my path you quake
And rattle like a tambourine
