Amyl and the Sniffers - Snakes lyrics

Veranda and the hot tar Gyprock and gum trees 45 degrees in the drought There was snakes on the grass When the storm’s rolling in Billy cart from the tip Dad did not like the rich But we rolled it down the hill It was fun as a kid Getting toys from the tip And underneath the dark clouds That’s where we’d swim Telephone polls in the cane field Sweating by the sea There was humidity There was snakes at the beach At the workplace Snakеs by the dam I was rolling in the mud I was feral, I still am And thеre’s snakes in the dunny There was snakes in the shed There was snakes at the house There was snakes in the chook pen Snakes at the vet, snakes in the shed Where we all slept our heads Where the four of us rest There was snakes in the long grass I submit to change But I know how I was raised Shed my skin just like the snake And I worked at IGA And it was great, snakes Dad was a craney And mum worked and studied I was swimming in the brunny I was buckteeth and pale I like work more than education Doesn’t mean that I am stupid I just like my independence Wasn’t a loser, definitely a loner Working at the workplace IGA and big snakes Shed in the chook pen snakes I submit to change I am just like the snake Shed my skin I’ll like to change But I know just how I was raised Snakes, snake Worked at the IGA Now I’m a famous c*nt Snakes, snakes, snakes Snakes, snakes, snakes
