Lyrics: Aquabats, The. Attacked By Snakes.

Night falls and I'm taken by sleep

Hot air blows up balloons in my dreams

Ding-dong rings the bell

Something's at the door

So I put on my slippers

And I creep across the floor



For the door from hence I heard

Another ding dong

I peep through the door hole

But something's very wrong

As on my porch

There are thousands of snakes

Ready to strike

I feel queasy and

My knees start to shake



My perilous fate

I see no escape as serpents lay seige

To my country estate

The Devil must have opened up hell's gates

and called up millions of snakes

To take me from this place



Big ones Little ones

Fat ones Skinny ones

Protect me from their venomous drug

That springs from the needles of fangs

Attacked by Snakes



By Snakes

So many snakes

You could fill the grate lakes

With snakes

Ha ha ha run

I try to hide

But snake bites on my face testify

I've been attacked by snakes



By snakes so many snakes

It would take a thousand crates

To contain the snakes after me

I'd rather be burned at the stake

Than be attacked by snakes



Welcome to my world

Or should I say this land of snakes

Serpents lie and wait

At every take my knees quake

As my life these snakes invade

Snake invaders show their fangs

On the snake parade



My perilous fate

I see no escape

As my family prays and waits

I fight them off with

Shovels and rakes and

Bats and phones

But I just can't seem

To shake these bones

That slither from the dark

To destroy my home



(chorus)



One snake, Two snake

Are there any more?

There's two more

Knocking at my door...
