Hollerado Thanks For The Venom Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Met you in a dark town, I was living under a stone
In the desert of my mind it was night and I was alone
You took me to the cold black top, you laid me flat on my back
And you slithered as I shivered 'til the sun it rose
And my muscles relaxed

[Chorus]
Oh, we could be friends
But you are a rattle snake
Thanks for the venom
Oh, we could be friends
But you are a rattle snake
(You are a rattle snake!)
You, you are a rattle snake

[Verse 2]
You told me that your name was Legs and you hated the irony
Soon I moved into your place
And we talked about getting some cats
'Til we came home on a Saturday night, our cats were your snack
And I watched just how your jaw bone grinds
Swore I'd never go back to you

[Chorus]
Oh, we could be friends
But you are a rattle snake
Thanks for the venom
Oh, we could be friends
But you are a rattle snake
(You are a rattle snake!)
You, you, you are a rattle snake

[Bridge]
When the daylight is getting low
I look right into your eye of fear
All that I'm letting go
When I get out of here

[Verse 4]
By the end of that summer I had crawled back to your kitchen floor
Covered in the feather and bones of all the meals before
And you yelled about the dirty dishes I had left in your sink
And your fangs found my flesh
Before I had one second to think about it

[Interlude]
Oh, you were my friend, we had a simple love
As simple as nature gets
Oh, we could be friends, we had a simple love
But you are a rattle snake

[Outro x2]
Oh, you were my friend
But you are a rattle snake
(You are a rattle snake!)
Thanks for the venom
Oh, you were my friend
But you are a rattle snake
(You are a rattle snake!)
You, you, you are a rattle snake
