Lyrics

Charmer And The Snake

My baby gives me poison
Tells me that it's a treat
Says it's made of sugar
But it tastes bitter to me

You got me in the garden
By the apple tree
Wrap yourself around me
'Til I can barely breathe

Look in my eyes
Hypnotize
Mesmerize me
You think you're the charmer
But you're really the snake

You're lying in the grass now
Your old familiar way
I see you slither past now
Trying to get away

You said that I can trust you
That I should have some faith
But when you shed your skin
I know that it's too late

Look in my eyes
Hypnotize
Mesmerize me
You think you're the charmer
But you're really the snake

Look in my eyes
Hypnotize
Mesmerize me
You think you're the charmer
You think you're the charmer
You think you're the charmer
But you're really the snake
