The Serpent’s Bite
wds&music Gary M Wollman
The serpent’s bite
Has you running for cover over&over oh the
Serpent’s bite…thinks that he can get ya
He’s unlikely to forget ya
Stay away from the pain & hurt
He’ll lurk right where you pray
Haunt you where you work
A creature crawlin’ hidin’ slidin’
Bidin’ his time writhin’ in the dirt
Do what’s right
Overcome the evil
Defeat the boll weevil
Avoid the bite
Never succumb to the toxic hit&run
Elude the sting
Keep love in sight
Leave the madness behind
On the trash heap of life
Don’t ever give in
Live the word from within
We can all thrive
The Serpent’s Bite
The sacred Earth’s
Been taken so for granted
Don’t like it I can’t stand it
For what it’s worth
It’s a sham and a sin
Don’t know where to begin
Seize the day
May your consciousness seek
Turn & confront the worm
Waitin’ squirmin’
Down at your feet
Take the antidote
Hold your head on high
Raise yourself up
Where the snake cannot rise
(that would be wise)
