Rattlesnake said to the copperheadYou give us vipers a real bad nameYou prey on the weakest, fight for no reasonNo wonder we get blamedCopperhead laughed, said: Kiss my ass!You can bark but there ain't much biteYou rattle that tail, but it's fear I smellI think you're shaking out of frightRattlesnake, copperheadEither one of them kill you deadWe stay hungry, they get fedAnd don't pass the plate aroundLie by lie, cheat by cheatVenom in smiling teethThey just run those forked tonguesAnd the whole world's burning downCopperhead said to the rattlesnakeIf you ever wanna make it rainWe could team up, be twice as toughFear will be our gameRattlesnake said to the copperheadY'know we were the original sinAnd I bet you my rattle against your copperThat the bitch takes the apple againRattlesnake, copperheadEither one of them kill you deadWe stay hungry, they get fedAnd don't pass the plate aroundLie by lie, cheat by cheatVenom in smiling teethThey just run those forked tonguesAnd the whole world's burning downRattlesnake said to the copperheadAin't no way they win'Cause the mice are sheep and the shepherd's asleepAnd the copperhead said: Amen
