Snakebite Charm

I'm done counting sheep at night
Stare at the ceiling til' the morning light
I wonder if I've missed the boat
Now's the question if I'll sink or float
When everything you know is right
Come crashing in and biting back
I don't know when to run or fight
And it's giving me a heart attack

The curse that's here to bite me
Tends to be abnorm
Alone out the on the deep-sea
In the perfect storm

Touch the sky
Live or die
And she treats with that snakebite charm
Wine and dine
So divine
And I'm caught here by her snakebite charm for good

Let's review what's the cause of all
The little hurdle that made me fall
A kind of girl that every woman hate
Five-foot-seven of sweet siren's bait
Men - can't take their eyes of her
For me it's just a constant blur
A modern version of Joan of Arc
But underneath a viper after dark

The curse of all her wonder
Always comes in pairs
And strikes me like the thunder
Of two raging bears

Touch the sky
Live or die
And she treats with that snakebite charm
Wine and dine
So divine
And I'm caught here by her snakebite charm for good

She cast the spell
I know so well
She wheals me in
And plays me like a mandolin
Again, again, again

The curse has come full circle
I'm doomed - I'm hanging dry
A solid dress rehearsal
Until the day I die

Touch the sky
Live or die
And she treats with that snakebite charm
Wine and dine
So divine
And I'm caught here by her snakebite charm for good
