Hot Chicken - Ocean Alley

Call in a favour, I need to contain it

And I’ll be the razor if you wanna play

And I know it’s dangerous, well honey what can I say?

'Cause I’m just a prisoner to the golden snake

Feel the frustration, push its way 'round my veins

Tense and outrageous, like a hit of cocaine

Try to embrace it, it’s the only way

'Cause I’m just a prisoner to the golden snake

So I hold these chains walking

I could just stay

Wasting away

I’ve been looking for a reason to draw the line

I could just stay

Wasting away

Well this is my purpose, I wasn’t born in the flames

I’m feeling impatient, I’m pretty sick of the games

And I am a puppet without any strings

I’m lost in the vortex with the golden snake

I’ve been devoured, and soon I’ll be waste

Soak up the poison, I had to give it a taste

If you’ll lay the flowers along to my grave

'Cause I’m just a prisoner to the golden snake

So I hold these chains

And walk into the serpent’s cave

So I hold these chains

And walk

I could just stay

Wasting away

I’ve been looking for a reason to draw the line

I’ve been in pain, permanently

Don’t trust the snake

(Don't, don’t, don’t)

I could just stay

Wasting away

I’ve been looking for a reason to draw the line

I could just stay

Wasting away

Try to keep my head in between the lines

Couldn’t look away from the serpent’s eyes

Totally vacant and hypnotised

Save me

Try to keep my head in between the lines

Couldn’t look away from the serpent’s eyes

Totally vacant and hypnotised

Save me
