Ballad Of Mr Snake Lyrics - Yes We Have No Mañanas - Kevin Ayers

When the angostura runs a little low 

And your gin has lost that soft and roosy glow 

And time is rushing by, but it seems slow 

Just live dangerously once before you go 

If you take the bite right out of Mr. Snake 

He'll assume the reputation of a fake 

Until someone comes along, someone fearless someone strong 

And gives that Mr. Snake a mighty shake 

But who wants to shake with a snake? 

Who wants to shake with a snake? 

Who would help a simple adder to be happy to be gladder? 

Who wants to shake with a snake? 

Who wants to shake with a snake? 

Who would help a simple adder to be happy to be gladder? 

Who wants to shake with a snake? 

Who wants to shake with a snake? 

Who wants to shale with a snake?
