A Snake In The Shower

It seems like you've already decided I don't think that there's much to discuss Well, we've been in between places We've mostly been staying at some house in the mountains Her friend isn't using She said he used to be a pretty huge producer He doesn't seem that huge anymore We found a torch in the drawer We found the foil on the floor There was blood on the buttons when I picked up the phone Oh, what happens is you claw out your sensors Then you don't know what you should feel And your body's just another container And your blood is just part of the deal There's scratching at the walls in the wheelhouse And it sounded like it's trapped under ice Remember when we thought this was better? There was a snake in the shower last night We dug in pretty deep and we were almost asleep When someone put a brick through the window Say what you will, man, I don't think that there's much to discuss Battle burns, cinnamon Colfax and Sheridan Covered up in ticker tape Newfangled American man The doctors hooked you up to computers to figure out where we went wrong The technician put on Cat and the Cobra The nurses laid down on the lawn What happens is you pull out your sensors Then you can't tell the key from the kite You fool around with thunder and lightning There was a snake in the shower last night Before we left the city we went out to some party Before we hit the party we stopped off for supplies There was a kid on the corner with a coat of many colors He said, "You want to be tamed? You want to get wild?" Pulled a stem from his sleeve, said, "Try one of these You'll dream like a king, little child" Then he smiled Someone made a joke that seemed hopeful About things that go bump in the night At first it kind of picked up the party And then it kind of ruins your life What happens when you snuff out the candle? It's mostly just an absence of light Death is a complete loss of power There was a snake in the shower last night
