well the bartender's working on a late night shift
see bums an' blonds an' barmaids on a midnight drift
and the dance band's playing the same old slime
I'm sinking whiskey and you're sippin' fine wine
I don't know what it is you're tryin' to prove
well it should be you but it's me who can hardly move
and I've got my reputation lyin' on the line

to carry me home

if the mule don't kick you know the mule don't ride
and I know, yes I know, I know

and I know, and I know, I know I'm gonna get it on the road
cause I'm living on borrowed time
you do it your way and I'll do it mine
livin' on borrowed time
don't need a shove, don't need a sign, no sign

every move you make
when you hear my rattle better be awake
snake eyes, watchin'
snake eyes, look out
snake eyes, it's coming
snake eyes, ain't no escaping from the snake eye
no way

you leave a foot print for my eye to see
catch an echo
from a lock an' key
from the shadow
or behind a rock
get your anti venom from the doctor shop
snake eyes, watchin'
snake eyes, look out
snake eyes, it's coming
snake eyes, ain't no escaping from the snake eye

snake eyes, snake eyes
snake eyes, snake eyes

hear a rustle
from behind a tree
gets you runnin'
home to sanctuary
bolt the door and
you think your safe
ha ha ha ha ha
wrong again child
snake eyes, watchin'
snake eyes, look out
snake eyes, it's coming
snake eyes
you got the snake eye, ain't no escaping from the snake eye
got the snake eye, always watching
snake eyes
ain't no escaping from the
just keep a lookout for the
snake eye
