If you would like to cure
The fever called life
Get some relief
From all the [bad word] and strife

The grandest medicine
That I can propose
Is under your nose
snake in the grass

If you would like a spot
Where life never goes
Where you can leave your body
Home in your clothes

The finest travel agent
You'll ever meet
Is right at your feet
snake in the grass

One sting
And you can say goodbye to all of your friends
One sting
And you'll be singing as your spirit ascends
Alls well that ends

So any day or night
Wherever you are
If you would like to take
trip to a star

The quickest transportation
Yet known to man
Is none other than
snake in the grass
snake in the grass
snake in the grass

If you would like to leave
That inhuman race
And take up residence
Out yonder in space

When you are ready
To go traveling on
Sit right down upon
snake in the grass

One sting
Is quite enough
To make you happy
And free

One sting
And you'll discover
How relaxed you can be
Posthumously

And while you're wandering
Through the heavenly blue
If you should see the [bad word] strolling in view
Go up and say
You bring Him best wishes
From his fallen old chum
snake in the grass
snake in the grass
snake in the grass

One sting

It's almost painless

snake in the grass
snake in the grass
snake in the grass

I'll be waiting
