Snake Oil Lyrics



Well, I never, I never saw anybody move like that before
Why do we spend so much time here on the floor
Looking up like I did before?
Your intoxicating movement ate away
At my sad eyes and my headache

I never, I never thought I'd be falling, I'd be caught
I see a bone and a straw in the dirt
White Nevada light, I squint against his shirt
My sleeping pills melted and I sleep fine
The tears on my shoulder won't keep me up tonight
The snake around my finger starts to unwind

Soak up the weather, s*ck up the sun
Into your bones then move on
I see a snake and a girl in the snow
White Nevada light, I feel the itch to go
The tears on my shoulder freeze then boil
I wouldn't be here if not for your snake oil
