Snake Oil Lyrics - Kristin Hersh

Well I never 

I never saw 

Anybody move like that before 

Why do we spend so much time 

Here on the floor 

Looking up like I did before 

Your intoxicating movement ate away 

At my sad eyes and my headache 

I never 

I never thought 

I'd be falling I'd be caught 

I see a bone and a straw in the dirt 

White and if by the light 

I squint against his shirt 

My sleeping pills melted 

And I sleep fine 

The tears on my shoulder 

Won't keep me up tonight 

The snake around my finger 

Starts to unwind 

Soak up the weather 

Suck up the sun 

Into your bones 

Then move on
