Let me let you

Let me let you down

Sitting pretty like a snake in the grass
Got the world within my grasp
All coiled up, ready to strike
Give me a reason not to bite

It's your world, trying hard to fit in
Think I would if I could only shed my skin

Let me let you

Let me let you down

Don't let them tell you you're no fun
Don't let them tell you that you're too young
Don't be afraid [bad word] a little closer
I'll show you how it's made, I'll make you feel older
I'll give you knowledge beyond your days
Daddy, daddy, wash me down with your sweet tears

Let me let you

Let me let you down
