Reptile - Tragic Black

Too dangerous to keep.

Too feeble to let go.

And you want to bite the hand.

Should have stopped this long ago.

Chorus:

Go now, you’ve been set free.

Another month or so you’ll be gorging on me With your lovely smile.

I see you slither away with your skin and your tail,

Your flickering tongue and rattling scales

Like a real reptile.

Had you coiled around my arm.

How could you ever know

How I loved your diamond eyes?

But that was long ago.

Chorus

And I should have believed Eve.

She said we had to blow.

She was the apple of my eye.

It wasn’t long ago.

Chorus

Go!
