Feast of Snakes

I went down to the Feast of Snakes
But that wasn't my first mistake
No, my first sin was being born
My daddy didn't want me
So he moved on
But I have learned to keep a clear head
Cause one false move out here and you're dead
We live in the wild, wild west
No, I don't care what no other man says
When you stare at a loaded gun
Will you tuck your tail and run?
Will you dig a hole and try to hide?
Just lay down and hope to die?
Come on!
Tell me who can live honestly
When we've all been born with an evil seed
Original sin, pain and greed
Forbidden fruit from forbidden trees
Gather up your rocks
Gather up your stones
Gather up your old dead donkey jaw bones
Let he or she who is without sin
Light the match
Let the fun begin
Come on!
So, I'm chasing down old memories
Leaving cold gray dragons lying dead in the street
'Til there's nothing left in the world for me
Loose the chains, come on and set me free
The time for justice has appeared
Let the righteous live and die without fear
Sure, the world's gone crazy
The world's gone mad
But that don't mean we have to die sad
Come on!
