Lyrics:
She'd say, "Billy, don't you run so fast
Might fall on a piece of glass
Might be snakes there in that grass"
Grandma's hands
Grandma's hands
She'd say, "Billy don't you run so fast
Might fall on a piece of glass
"Might be snakes there in that grass"
Grandma's hands
Grandma's hands
She'd say, "Billy, don't you run so fast
Might fall on a piece of glass
Might be snakes there in that grass"
Grandma's hands
Grandma's hands
say, "Billy don't you run so fast
Might fall on a piece of glass
"Might be snakes there in that grass"
Grandma's hands
Grandma's hands
Soothed a local
The glass snake cut the ash
Carved ribbons around the smolderings
Only to tie a knot at my feet in a pool of gasoline.
The pines went up with a "hush"
She'd say, "Billy don't you run so fast
Might fall on a piece of glass
"Might be snakes there in that grass"
Grandma's hands
Grandma's hands
She'd say, "Billy don't you run so fast
Might fall on a piece of glass
"Might be snakes there in that grass"
Grandma's hands
Grandma's hands
She'd say, "Billy don't you run so fast
Might fall on a piece of glass
"Might be snakes there in that grass"
Grandma's hands
Grandma's hands
She'd say, "Billy don't you run so fast
Might fall on a piece of glass
"Might be snakes there in that grass"
Grandma's hands
Grandma's hands
Thought he heard whispering outside the diving bell...
Sounded like his little sister laughing
(When she was lying with the glass snakes in
Trapped under, trapped under, trapped under
Ride in, black van, snake skin, glass lens
Trapped under, trapped under, trapped under
Ride in, Trans Am,
our clothes off and form a conga line
Watch out for that broken glass, hey Snake, we need more wine
We're gypsies in the palace, there ain't no
snake under grass
(Again)
Boy, stop live down inna de past
Just member when man a ride 'orse
Body between di board head peep through the glass
say, "Baby, don't you run so fast
Might fall on a piece of glass, might be snakes there in my grass"
Grandma's hands, I'm talkin' 'bout my grandma's
say, "Kevin why you run so fast,
Might fall on a piece of glass,
Might be snakes there in that grass?"
Grandma's hands, they keep on calling to me.
down inna di past
Stop from 'memba when man a ride horse
Body between di board, your head a peep through the glass
Crushed like a serpent snake under
When I punch my ticket
I'm a glass snake don't I know
Round and round in my sphere
She bounds through on a roll
What have I got here
Heartbreak
out a warning
She'd say "Gladys don't you run so fast!
Might fall on a piece of glass!
Might be snakes there in that grass!"
Grandma's hands
madness?
Someone's watching you behind the glass, snakes, liars
Choosing your own destiny? What is your drama?
Waking up with your chains on, everything's
She'd say, "Billy don't you run so fast
Might fall on a piece of glass
"Might be snakes there in that grass"
Grandma's hands
Grandma's hands
and stained
A shock of insults spreading pain
Twisted prejudice fuelling judgement
Angry shadows in their descent
Immobilised by broken glass
Snakes snapping
don't you run so fast
Might fall on a piece of glass
Might be snakes there in that grassâ??
Granma's hands
Granma's hands sooth the local unwed mother
She'd say, "Billy don't you run so fast
Might fall on a piece of glass
"Might be snakes there in that grass"
Grandma's hands
Grandma's hands
Borrow money from the soil
Just to feed your toil
A snake fed to glass
Rattling on about my grass...
About your upturned nose
(And so on)
She was
