Down on Serpent Street

Well, I'm walking down the street
And this street looks very crazy
There's a girl I'd like to meet
But she's not really living here
She dates back to Catherine
The one from the Medicis
She drinks liquor laced with poison
Since she went through World War VI

There's an old man down this street
And he sure looks very crazy
He tries hard to let it go
Though his mother surely knows
And he's trading Picassos
From the back of a motel
To buy a diamond-studded speedo
To his ladyboy from hell

This street will die one day and fade away
This street will die one day and fade away

And here come the yellow negroes
And here come the ancient Greeks
And here comes your mother-in-law
With her sisterhood of freaks
And here comes the little boy
Who won't ask for anything
But he will try to steal your soul
With his screeching violin

There's an old wench down this street
And she sure looks very crazy
She tries hard to eat my mind
With her blackened, rotten teeth
She dates back to this cold weekend
And the girl you made up with
She was just a minor demon
Then she went up on the list

This street will die one day and fade away
This street will die one day and fade away

Do you really think you lead the blind?
Do you think you'll catch the train on time?
Or did you drink too much?
Boy, are you losing touch?

Well, this street is very long
And I can't reach out its limits
Though I'm waiting here for you
At the end of Serpent Street
And you'll never be on time
There's something else on your mind
And I'm not down on my luck
It's just that you don't give a fuck

This street will die one day and fade away
This street will die one day and fade away
This street will die one day and fade away
This street will die one day and fade away

And fade away
And fade away
And fade away
And fade away
