Snakes - Pixies

Meet me by the coppice stool

Before the night takes back its jewels

Bring your life of memories

Before they sink into the seas

Snakes

Are coming to your town

In tunnels underground

Some travelling overground

A plague for our mistakes

They’ll be right next to you

Snakes up against me too

There’ll be nothing to do When the rattle shakes

One more blast and then we’re dry

Say some words, I’ll write them down

Seal the couplets deep inside

Snakes

Are coming to your town

In tunnels underground

Some travelling overground

A plague for our mistakes

They’ll be right next to you

Snakes up against me too

There’ll be nothing to do When the rattle shakes
