Roches - The Snake Lyrics
If you move into my life and take over my soulCharm all my friends and play the rescuer roleLet me quit my job to go on your doleAnd make your approval my ultimate goal,I will begin to shrink back into the corner of my own skinUntil Im so small and pink that no one would see meEven if they got in -Your enormous index finger would be probing to find meAs I darted between the walls of my own personalityWhich would be changing as I left most of it behind meDisappearing into a new reality...And when you tried to trot me out to show me to your friendsTheyd say what girlfriend? we dont see any girlfriend.As you open the door of your mercedes benzNow you got the oyster you dont need the pearl whenYou can have my beautiful smileThat wonderfully elegant styleAll my show business connectionsBoth of my cats affectionsThe clothes you bought me are yoursThat timex watch enduresMy good relationship with your momMy ability to remain calm,But here Id be like a dead person looking downOn the cemetery where they placed a stoneWith a name on it like jane smith or john brownThat I no longer recognized as my ownHold me tight and Ill just shed my skin, slither away,No matter whats happenin.
