Hot Chicken

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Call in a favour, I need to contain it And I'll be the razor, if you wanna play And I know it's dangerous, well, honey, what can I say? 'Cause I'm just a prisoner to the golden snake [Verse 2] Feel the frustration push its way 'round my veins Tense and outrageous, like a hit of cocaine Try to embrace it, it's the only way 'Cause I'm just a prisoner to the golden snake [Chorus] So I hold these chains and walk And I could just stay, wasting away I've been looking for a reason to draw the line And I could just stay, wasting away [Verse 3] Is this my purpose, or was it born in the flames? I'm feeling impatient, I'm pretty sick of the games And I am a puppet without any strings I'm lost in the vortex of the golden snake I've been devoured and soon I'll be waste Soak up the poison, I had to give it a taste And you'll lay the flowers along to my grave 'Cause I'm just a prisoner to the golden snake [Chorus] So I hold these chains and walk Into the serpent's cage So I hold these chains and walk And I could just stay, wasting away I've been looking for a reason to draw the line Well, I've been in pain, permanently Oh, don't trust the snake (Don't, don't, don't) And I could just stay, wasting away I've been looking for a reason to draw the line And I could just stay, wasting away [Outro] Try to keep my head in between the lines Couldn't look away from the serpent's eyes Totally vacant and hypnotised Oh, save me Try to keep my head in between the lines Couldn't look away from the serpent's eyes Totally vacant and hypnotised Oh, save me
