Snake charmer, in front of the water
Is talking to the snake that is in the water.
Telling the snake that he's okay,
And keeps the snake from drowning.

Snake charmer, in front of the water,
Talked to the snake that's neck deep in water,
Telling the snake that it will be okay,
Then the snake realizes he wasn't to stay.

Snake charmer, no longer
In the water he doesn't want the snake that's
In the water,
He leaves for the snake on the land,
The one with ugly face, but he don't see that.
Or maybe jealously tainted the snake's vision.

Snake charmer, no longer
By the water,
The snake was left to drown
In the water,
While the snake charmer
Left with his snake on land.
Oh man, did the snake think he had a friend,
Or maybe the snake wanted more
Than just "friends".
