Arsenic in the Year of the Snake - Cancer Bats

Thirteen like a hex in the winter night

Black clouds on me

Fifty two hard scales on a serpent’s back

Goddamn them all!

Bad vibes thrown around like a hurricane

To break down the skeptic in my head

And I thought I was the last one believing in this

Superstition or alchemy

Thirty three in the thirteenth year

Superstition or alchemy

Arsenic in the year of the snake

Thirteen like a hex in the summer sky

Black clouds on you

Twelve long sharp teeth in a serpent’s mouth

Goddamn them all!

Bad luck chained to you like a prison weight

To break down the skeptic in my head

And I thought I was the last one believing in this

Superstition or alchemy

Thirty three in the thirteenth year

Superstition or alchemy

Arsenic in the year of the snake

Superstition or alchemy

Rhetoric, perfectly clear

Superstition making sense to me

Too many friends died this year!

Whatever you believe in

Three hundred and sixty five days

It was never ending

For you, for me

And I’m normally the positive one

Three hundred and sixty five days

It was never ending

Thirteen, thirteen

Superstition or alchemy

Arsenic in the year of the snake

Superstition making sense to me

Too many friends died this year!
