Calling all snakes
Seek out the ox and get yourself inside when the weather breaks
There are mongeese in the tall grass with appetites for eggs
Neither knowing how to bark or how to beg
You won't need leg or arm to dodge the charmer's charm
Just be aware of when to sway and when to slide away
And if all else fails, the fangs, the friend to which the foe will fall
Know if you're fine with slithering, there is no need to crawl at all

Ox, rat, dragon, rabbit, rooster, tiger, and snake
Ox, rat, dragon, rabbit, rooster, tiger, and snake

Shimmy, slide, and sh-sh-shake
Judas the fools who need a good judasing for knowing's sake
All the naked creatures will be turned to apple-eaters
With some wherewithal and a forked tongues languid drawl
If you spit or constrict or however you inflict
Writhe around on the ground, these tweleve months are fixed
Just know your place and know your face, and know it's the year of the snake

Ox, rat, dragon, rabbit, rooster, tiger, and snake

It's the year of the snake

When you hear the rattle it means I'm coming in
When you taste the poison it means I'm coming in
When you hear the rattle it means I'm coming in
When you taste the poison it means I'm coming in
When you hear the rattle it means I'm coming in
When you taste the poison it means I'm coming in
When you hear the rattle it means I'm coming in
