Has anyone already heard The Snake? I was wondering if it was an original FB song or a cover. I know Shivaree did a cover of an old song called The Snake, and it was the kind of song Frank would cover. It sounded a bit like Nadine.

| It's original. He played it in Boston at his solo show and I liked it a lot. I'll post the lyrics tomorrow if I get a chance. |

Lyrics as promised, if anyone cares. 
Well, I'm a snake - oh yes I'm very smart
but I was cool (?) I got a humble start
and I just laughed when you begged and you pleaded
and I would lay here cut in half
cause I'm not the one you needed
So pretty & so tender that's the rabbits way
a little pessimistic but that's okay
A pig or a goat, well they wouldn't let you be so mistreated
So I guess on that note, I am not the one you needed
Well, they call me the snake
I'm just feeling my way
So pretty & so tender that's the rabbits way
a little pessimistic but that's okay
A pig or a goat, well they wouldn't let you be so mistreated
So I guess on that note, I am not the one you needed
Now I lay here cut in half, cause I am not the one you needed |

| Ramona_ just curious. Did you figure out the lyrics to The Snake just from hearing it that one time at Zuzu? If so, should we all be frightened? |

I downloaded the recording and have played it numerous times. I do have a good memory - but not THAT good.  |

Where did you download the recording ramona? I want it! I must have it!
PS Thanks for the lyrics for the Snake. It's in my head today, and it helps to have the lyrics instead of just going "I'm a snake oh da da da, something something something a na na na". |

Chiefdaddy recorded it on his minidisk player and sent me the link of where to download it, which was very nice of him (see the whole exchange here - http://forum.frankblack.net/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=1896). It took for-freakin-ever to download, but it is worth it to hear Frank chatting to little old me...hee!
Anyway, glad I could help with the lyrics. The words are where it's at for me, so I am happy to do it. |

| Well, I'll have to look into that at home. Thanks again. Frank chatted to little old you? I mean, I'VE talked to him, but I'm all sorts of important, but he talked to YOU? Wow. It kinda cheapens my whole experience..... |
