Lyrics:

Snakes
Are green
And long
And mean

They'll bite you
On the feet
If you're not careful

Snakes!

I was going to work with Secretariat on more involved idea she had—it involved a fair amount of sampling of game-over sequences from various Metal Gear Solid titles—but we totally failed to actually do that and so I made this shit up a couple hours ago while she was getting her hair cut.

Also, that tremendous guitar tone is my Casino played unplugged about six inches from a mic.

Is that you going "Bite! Bite! Bite!" in there somewhere.

If so: Awesome.

If not: Also Awesome

Fantastic! Winston said he woke up and had this song mashed up with one of mine (So Weird) in his head, and so I had to come check yours out. Love it.

snofoam: don't know Tony, but I don't know anybody so that's par for the course. Listened to samples of Mona Lisa. Mona Lisa. just a minute ago; snagging that thing now. Thanks for the tip!
