Snakes

My mommy was
A great big whore
My dad, he bought her
At the candy store
And I became a sailor
At the age of three
And I spoke in tongues
Across the seven seas
I’m all covered in snakes
My mommy was
A professional killer
She murdered fifty men
By the age of ten
I got my first gun
By the age of one
I’d shoot sheriffs dead
Just for some fun
I’m all covered in snakes
My mother was a pale horse known only to ancient Sumerian children sacrificed
in the name of Beelzebub, the 11th Scourge of God
Her goat head did rage in the loins of the Morning Star where she drowned in
Satan’s black placenta
And she was thrown out of hell and tumbled a thousand miles on the road to
Russiatown where she landed in the Devil’s Dirt
And that is where she will remain, and that is where she gave birth to me,
for I am the Soil Child
And the Devil belongs to me
The devil belongs to me
The devil belongs to me
And the devil belongs to me
Our daddy was
A hate machine
He liked his women
Like he liked to be mean
He screwed our mommies
They were sisters three
Then he hopped on a horse
And decided to flee
I’m all covered in snakes
