a peculular purple python whispers softly in my head
he dances through my dreams as I lay asleep in bed
he tells me that he loves me that only he can make me whole 
while he dances with the demons in the shadows of my soul
the snake is in the apple tree coiled around its lowest limb
with gentle calm persuasion he convinces me to follow him
he takes me to the chapel where a serpent guards the door
he bows his head before the cross and pisses on the floor
he takes me to the garden where poppys, ferns, and orchids grow
where the dandelions shed their seeds as gentle breezes start to blow
then the snake consumes a mushroom which he found among the cyprus trees
he then proceeds to vomit on a book of ancient prophecies
and now the snake is in a trance in which he sets his mind completely free
his body floats above the floor on a wave of psychic energy
the sky turns dark as night and the oceans turn to blood
and the walrus says a final prayer while drowning in the psychic flood
the sky is full of crystals and the sea is full of beads 
the chapel drips with acid and the garden's full of weeds
for hippo and the butterfly to survive against the odds 
they must build and alter on the hill and worship strange perverted gods
the snake begins to shudder as his powers start to fade
he twitches and convulses in a psychedelic rage
then his trance is broken and the snake falls to the ground 
and the earth returns to normal without a movement or a sound
as I lay awake in bed I know that morning's coming soon
and the snake flys out the window and drifts towards the moon
