Thanks so much, Janine! It was good making this with you.

You can’t relax around a coiled spring
No matter what they say
Cause what they do is everything
You can’t relax around a coiled spring

What did you think was gonna happen?
What did you think was gonna happen?

No matter what they tell you
The snake is not your friend
That’s just me being me, he said
I’m the snake for heaven’s sake oh what did you expect?

What did you think was gonna happen?
What did you think was gonna happen?

But snake also needs a friend
A snake ought to haaaaave a friend
A snake also needs a friend
A snake ought to haaaaave a friend
Ssssssssssssssss

You can’t relax around a person who snaps
No matter how they kiss
A morsel of cheese and a tango perhaps,
But turn your back and you’re just a mouse in a trap

What did you think was gonna happen?
What did you think was gonna happen?
What did you think was gonna happen?
What did you think was gonna happen?
