Down on Serpent Street

Well, I'm walking down the street

And this street looks very crazy

There's a girl I'd like to meet

But she's not really living here

She dates back to Catherine

The one from the Medicis

She drinks liquor laced with poison

Since she went through World War VI

There's an old man down this street

And he sure looks very crazy

He tries hard to let it go

Though his mother surely knows

And he's trading Picassos

From the back of a motel

To buy a diamond-studded speedo

To his ladyboy from hell

This street will die one day and fade away

This street will die one day and fade away

And here come the yellow negroes

And here come the ancient Greeks

And here comes your mother-in-law

With her sisterhood of freaks

And here comes the little boy

Who won't ask for anything

But he will try to steal your soul

With his screeching violin

There's an old wench down this street

And she sure looks very crazy

She tries hard to eat my mind

With her blackened, rotten teeth

She dates back to this cold weekend

And the girl you made up with

She was just a minor demon

Then she went up on the list

This street will die one day and fade away

This street will die one day and fade away

Do you really think you lead the blind?

Do you think you'll catch the train on time?

Or did you drink too much?

Boy, are you losing touch?

Well, this street is very long

And I can't reach out its limits

Though I'm waiting here for you

At the end of Serpent Street

And you'll never be on time

There's something else on your mind

And I'm not down on my luck

It's just that you don't give a fuck

This street will die one day and fade away

This street will die one day and fade away

This street will die one day and fade away

This street will die one day and fade away

And fade away

And fade away

And fade away

And fade away
