Serpent Charmer Songtext / Lyric

There's a woman hater with a broken record player

And a dusty compass off to map the country's new behavior

Strange words and we all roll back into the river

Brave boys in the empty coats of men






There's a kitchen timer, distractions and reminders

Rolly-pollies slowly crawling 'cross your family china

Strange words and we all roll back into the river

And dead dogs only want to live again



There's a serpent charmer, pair of shoes and wander

Speeding ticket you got leading that last lamb to slaughter

Strange words and we all roll back into the river

Good girls come and kick you in the shin



There's a hopeful hunter with a helpless sense of wonder

And a million claw marks on the rock he hid his money under

Strange words and we all roll back into the river

And made men only want to live again
