  • My mind's tired, my body's wired
    I fall back asleep, I taste like a liar
    No being hazed, chemical chain
    Life in a blaze, step in the flame
    I'll never fail to disappoint you

    Snake, snake, snake charmer, charmer
    Let the wake, wake, wake of charmer
    (I'm looking for balls to crack)
    Snake, snake, snake charmer, charmer
    For the sake, sake, sake of karma
    (I'm taking my poison back)

    My heart's black, my soul's cracked
    I sing for the swine, I preach to the rats
    You been so kind, you been so blind
    I cut my throat to slice, that's suicide
    If you beg, they'll anoint you
    But I'll never fail to disappoint you

    Snake, snake, snake charmer, charmer
    Let the wake, wake, wake of charmer
    (I'm looking for balls to crack)
    Snake, snake, snake charmer, charmer
    For the sake, sake, sake of karma
    (I'm taking my poison back)

    No way no, get off your knees
    Don't play, don't don't you beg me
    Get off your knees don't beg, don't plead
    All you ever need

    Snake, snake, snake charmer, charmer
    Let the wake, wake, wake of charmer
    (I'm looking for balls to crack)
    Snake, snake, snake charmer, charmer
    For the sake, sake, sake of karma
    (I'm taking my poison back)

    Snake, snake, snake
    I'm looking for balls to crack
    Get off your knees, don't beg and plea
    Get off your knees
    I'm taking my, I'm taking my
    I'm taking my point Writer/s: CHRISTIAN PIERCE, JASEN MORENO, MICHAEL LUCE, STEPHEN BENTON
