Frightened Rabbit - Snake lyrics

Me and Snake talk about you every day
I can't wait to see your face
And he tells me he feels the same

We lie awake
We're tired but we can't get to sleep
I'm tired 'cause I've scraped through the day
He's tired because he's been out late, again

And there he lies
Staring up with his big gay eyes
And whispers to me "Aren't you tired?"
"I'm tired of missing B"

I'll wake with Snake
He's soft inside but not as soft as you
I love that snake but I love you more
And he's no substitute
I'll wake, I'll wake with you soon

Yesterday Snake told me about the time
When we came to meet you off the plane
We all drove home in Wheels

He was proud and awfully glad
That I took him out
I said "How does New York sound?"
He said "It sounds quite loud"

So pack your pipes
Pack your Chapstick and your tights
And one shoe for going out at night
We're go to visit B

We'll take a camera and go to the zoo
And take pictures of other snakes with you
And hope one of 'em turns out to be gay

I'll wake with Snake
He's soft inside, but not as soft as you
I love that snake but I love you more
And he's no substitute
I'll wake, I'll wake with you soon
