Hollerado - Thanks For The Venom lyrics

Met you in a dark town
I was living under a stone
In the desert of my mind it
Was night and I was alone
You took me to the cold black top
You laid me flat on my back
And you slithered as I shivered
'til the sun it rose and my muscles relaxed

Oh, we could be friends
But, you are a rattle snake
Thanks for the venom oh, we could be friends
But, you are a rattle snake
(You are a rattle snake)
You, you are a rattle snake

You told me that your name was
Legs and you hated the irony
Soon I moved into your place
And we talked about getting some cats
'Til we came home on a Saturday night
Our cats were your snack
And I watched just how your jaw bone grinds
Swore I'd never go back to you

Oh, we could be friends
But, you are a rattle snake
Thanks for the venom oh, we could be friends
But, you are a rattle snake
(You are a rattle snake)
You, you, you are a rattle snake

When the daylight is getting low
I look right into your eye of fear
All that I'm letting go
When I get out of here

By the end of that summer I had
Crawled back to your kitchen floor
Covered in the feather and bones
Of all the meals before
And you yelled about the dirty dishes
I had left in your sink
And your fangs found my flesh
Before I had one second to think about it

Oh, you were my friend, we had a simple love
As simple as nature gets
Oh, we could be friends, we had a simple love
But, you are a rattle snake

Oh, you were my friend
But, you are a rattle snake
(You are a rattle snake)
Thanks for the venom oh, you were my friend
But, you are a rattle snake
(You are a rattle snake)
You, you, you are a rattle snake
