Snake Behind Glass Songtext
von Jon Langford

There is no twilight, there is no dusk
Just a sunny day, suddenly turned dark
A kaleidoscope of a 1000 idea
Becomes a straight line

A snake behind glass
He′s like a snake behind glass

A 20 acre patch, with cotton for cash
And vegetables for the table
For better for worse, for worse forever
This farm on government land


A snake behind glass
He's like a snake behind glass

How high′s the water Mama?
I'm busted, I got stripes

He stayed awake, for 72 hours straight
Slept for thirty, and dropped sixty pounds in weight
He's got painkillers and a guitar case full of amphetamines
When he prayed he wore out his knees

A snake behind glass
He′s like a snake behind glass
Snake behind glass
He′s like a snake behind glass


One, two, three, four
Alright
