the sun was bright that day
leaving freckles in my skin
burning brown grains of sand
stepping a little too far inland
losing sight of the sea
looking for the snake's oolong tea
theft ain't bad if you're taking
from the thief
got nothing to lose, friend,
just like you
you know how it is
oh, hello
i'd never steal from you
just wanted to look around
admire the place
you've got a pretty good setup here
no, i'm not a kiss-ass, i'm being for real
scraping my knees on the rocks near
the shoreline, digging sand into my skin
the reddening streaks on my legs
remind me of the sunset
pain is nothing, i tell myself
kneeling and praying to god
for mercy upon mine soul
but this doesn't get old
face flushed with relief
my pockets full of the snake's
very aromatic oolong tea
