Intro: (8x) Verse Rattlesnake said to the copperhead "You give us vipers a real bad name You prey on the weakest, in fact for no reason No wonder we get blamed" Copperhead laughed, said "Kiss my ass! You can bark but there ain't much bite You rattle that tail, but it's fear I smell I think you're shaking out of fright" Rattlesnake, copperhead Either one of them'll kill you dead We stay hungry, they get fed And don't pass the plate around Lie by lie, cheat by cheat Venom in smiling teeth They just run those forked tongues And the whole world's burning down Interlude: (4x) Verse Copperhead said to the rattlesnake "If you ever wanna make it rain We could team up, be twice as tough Fear will be our game" Rattlesnake said to the copperhead "Y'know we were the original sin And I bet you my rattle against your copper That the bitch takes the apple again" Rattlesnake, copperhead Either one of them'll kill you dead We stay hungry, they get fed And don't pass the plate around Lie by lie, cheat by cheat Venom in smiling teeth They just run those forked tongues And the whole world's burning down Interlude: (8x) Rattlesnake said to the copperhead "Ain't no way they'd win Cause the mice are sheep and the shepherd's asleep" And the copperhead said "Amen"
