See the serpents as they lie

See the serpents move their eyes

They’re wading on the eastern sun

Where they lie within their young

They’re moving the faded light

See them storm in the dead of night

The wading sun breaks free

The wading sun breaks

See them cruise on their way

They’re cruising every mile

Wading on the eastern sun

When light moves through the room

Adjacent city miles

Cruise through your love life

Fade

Await the eastern sun

Invade all thoughts of war and life and death

What for is love the most the rest

The flowing of gardens severed gate

Come to this fell break

Remove that time

That time will come again

Croon now they say

Beside the way

Into the severed garden

Page 2: See the serpents as they lie

And a beast of bleak bargain

Beside the ancient lake

I want to die again

Why are we obsessed with war

I want to death implore

The wading eastern sun

Arise.

Choose now the ancient moon

Croon they the word sayers

Croon they the night wanderers

And the chieftain seas

Croon now they croon

Beneath the moon the garden has gone out

Let us cry again

Beside the ancient lake

For memories sake

Let me die gain

While awaiting for some sin

I want the world to bleed

Children we can’t feed

I wanna watch you bleed.

Will you die for me?

Die for me

Die for me my love

Die for me oh love

Page 3: See the serpents as they lie

The vision of the death

Was clear delirium

Shaded night of grey

Will you die for me my love?

Will you die for me my love?

Can I die

When shall I die my love

My love will you remember me?

Tell me gain oh love my love

The final clasp

Life and death

The final hour

Death.

Die for me oh love

Let me die for you

You want me to die for you

Let me die for you.

Oh yes it is death

Death the only way

Death the cruise control

Death the only way

Death the final hour

Pouring over doves

Death the only way

Death the only way oh love

Let me die for you.

Will you remember?

Remember me oh love

Do not forget death

Death the only way.

Death flies over

The scar is left on earth

My corpse an idol statute

My life a memory full

No one will forget me

All will remember

It is not my death

It is the way

Let me tell you

Page 5: See the serpents as they lie

The darkness death

The darkness death oh love.

Die.

If this would be the last poem I ever wrote

It would be the only one I’ve known

The end.

Death is the way

The way out is the way,

Do not speak again.

It is the only way.

Let us die again

It is the only way,

Let us die again.

It is the only way oh love

I love you.

I love my girl.

Tell me girliy what it is

I shall show you all the end

Even before it begin

You shall know I am the end

And everybody’s friend

The end.

My love is ceaseless death.

I’ll never OD.

The only way

Page 6: See the serpents as they lie

The end.

Keep a clean head

For a clean bed,

You don’t need a weatherman

To smoke all over your head.

The only way of life the end

I’ll never look into them eyes ever again

The gardens gone

The end.

This is not the beginning

This is not the beginning

The snakes cross paths

The end.

Taking too many drugs it wears down on you.

They come from trench town

They come from trench town

If I had kept the last three lines I’d be viewed as inane with an s.

Once you give yourself away

You’ll be looking for a job with better pay.

Once you give away,

It’s a rip-off.

Giving yourself away.

People live their lives.

No drugs shall hither over time.

Page 7: See the serpents as they lie

Take the ride and redeem yourself

They’re coming from trench town

They’re coming from trench town/

Hey you looking oh so nice

Coming to see a truckers pay

I’ll keep on cruising for another day

If they give me that

Something seems to take time

I’m sure I am in line.

In trench town yeah in trench town.

It must change

Somebody must change

It’s the reason I’ve been carrying on

Ill never die within that throng

Whether it be right or wrong

Tell me again the shifting glance

Tell me another lie—that’s your last chance

Somebody must change

You are the reason I’ve been waiting for oh so long

Even coffee has got me al right

Somebody has changed.

Write and re-write

Truck and pick-up

Drop and drop-off,

Everyway is a way.

Page 8: See the serpents as they lie

Where there’s a will there’s always a way.

And so it begins.

We and dem

Battle through the yard,

We and dem

Battle through the yard,

But someone will lie today

For the lack of blood,

It’s the violence they say

Someone want it all in the worth

Somebody wabt it all in the worth,

Said it’s a long haul too late

Each and all of them flesh.

Aye.

Each of them all for the work,

The pay of trucker’s $52,000 annualy last year here.

Each of us know how to work.

Work everyday is work.

Work everyday is work.

The battle commences

Calmed in the desert

The girl through the faded window

The temperant light

The hurly rage,

The life of alcoholics

Page 9: See the serpents as they lie

The death of every man woman and child.

To fight a forge unsolved of every mandate

The federal government agrees

Don’t speak so swift

They’ll get your head at once

Tell me againthat I have lied

I shall again seek envy

Tell me that I have spoken incorrectly

I shall correct the embassy.

I will not tell a lie

No I will not lie

I will not speak wrongly on my work.

Everyday is work

Work everyday is work.

How much of this is filler?—only this line

I’ll write a book you know

A how to book may be.

It shall be a book for ure

A true book for you may be.

I shall write one soon

With asthma and smoke on the rise.

It rebels silently and speaks true of reality.

Tell me fortuitous wisened monk of morality

Tell me truly huffing men of the window

Of the gate, the bridge, the way,

Page 10: See the serpents as they lie

Tell me everyday which day I shall arrive in

What state I shall awake to

And in this tender mercy I need a prescription for a drug.

It will help me breath, artificial air and caffeine.

Clear head life ahead the y say

And so I shall fie

Dead or alive or bounty

Thet will to live and federal murder,

Speak to me of the gluttony and brute vitality of systems gone wrong.

Caught in the cold of night,

Like a murderous madman.

I shall rebel again.

Tell me truly of this vision

This is the one true way.

The final vision found and lost

And found again

The final poem I write before die.

I’ve lost my head and will to live

They will get along without me.

Good-bye.

My final letter to the end

Good-bye my dearest friend.

Do the right thing badly

Get the lawyers involved

Take a piece of this double vision

Page 11: See the serpents as they lie

Tell them all it’s the drug.

The drugs make you worse.

Tell me wsomething

Tell me another lie

Tell me something

Than is greater lie than rate race gone soft.

The cold is always cold.

Time passes slowly

It is really cold at night.

This will never change.

Oh what a rate race

Some’ll go some’ll

Some’ll rise ssome’ll

Be coming in from the cold.

Throw a book at them.

We and dem,

We’ll be coming in from the cold.

We’ll be coming in from the cold.

Us and dem.

This life of mine

We’ll be coming in from the cold.

We’ll be coming in from the cold.

Come together.

Make it work.

We’ve got tot make it work.

Page 12: See the serpents as they lie

We’ve got to make it work.

Make it work.

Why chase the gold.

Looking for the next day.

Working hard each and all days

They come to me

Looking for the next day

One day left to go now

Everyday you gotta work

If you want to succeed

We’ve got to make it work.

We’ve got to make it work.

Three days to go now

Working for the next day.

Say we got one day to go now

Working for the next day.

Work work work work

Work work work work.

We’ve got to make it work.

Coffee and natty dread,

And I walk up the first street

And I walk up the second street

And I tread on the third street

And I wander down the fifth street.

And I keep going to sixth street.

Page 13: See the serpents as they lie

I’m gonna get to seventh street

Natty dread natty dread now,

Oh working for the next day.

Working ofr the next day,

Don’t care what the world say.

Just like a brightened sun.

Natty dread natty dread now.

Don’t care what the world say now.

Just like a brightened sun

Natty dread natty dread now.

I see everything now.

My name tossed out is good for me.

Natty dread natty dread now.

I woke up in a good suite

Oh lord I was a prisoner as well

They took my hand and took me to hell

With chains of brutality,

So I hit the road.

To see that sitance street.

I had to carry one.

Burning and looting tonight

See I gotta burn up for illusion tonight.

Bunring and a looting tonight.

Burning and a looting tonight.

Burning and a looting tonight

Page 14: See the serpents as they lie

Burning and alooting tonight now.

Burning and a looting tonight now

Misty morning no illusion haunting through the night,

There’s just one mystery—the express.

All distractions waste time.

Pimpers paradise all they ever are.

Pimpers paradise all they ever are.

Myseries just a express.

How did you ever receive in a reggae religion

The thoughts of moral pangs and thoughts redeemed

No distractions of horrid persons.

Only the way away with positive vibrations.

Hear dem crying. Hear dem crying.

Hear it in da news.

I prefer the drugs to a cursed name to think on suffering from a-holes.

There is only one.

He’s gone out of my life for good.

Never going back.

All those filler lines.

Read me once again.

I’ll write my own sepulcher.

That would be the way.

Mix it mix it.

Stir it up.

Stop at the republican party.

Page 15: See the serpents as they lie

Just past the house.

The big winners.

And some small

They’re going on

And they’re going out.

Come again my friend.

Come again my friend.

Thinking names splits the brain in halve

Dead end road.

The course of reality.

Coursing through the brain.

Traveling through the veins.

So much trouble in the veins.

Dig a little.

Breath in.

Synthetic air pumped into me.

The drugs grow heavy.

Too much too fast.

Temors on the bones.

Tell me crushing jaw line

It’s the thought that makes it worst

Might as well be the first pain

It might as well be the last.

Many more will have to suffer.

Many more will have to die.

Page 16: See the serpents as they lie

Don’t ask me why.

Don’t ask me why.

So much trouble in the world.

Don’t ask me why.

Don’t ask me why.

Some people try so hard to get to the sylum

Unlike hippies who try so hard to stay away.

They’ll all go mad.

And where will I be—creativity.

Where will I be in the end?

I’ll never know for sure.

I’ll never know for sure.

To dominate healthcare through ushered men,

Fiery protsts and no illicit drug,

Always on the form of exceptionalism.

Never question those unpermittede youths

Never question contenders to the end.

There’s more to talk about

Things keep going on

Things keep going on.

Things keep going on.

Things keep going on.

And now go forth against him

And traverse from every stone.

Page 19: See the serpents as they lie

No king obama.

Never.

Any floating lie over him,

I see no light, I see no tunnel.

I see the endless road.

The scorching heat.

The scaling waves ccrashing in.

The brutal forestry.

The final clasp of man.

The final hour falls

The final light of day.

The final hour falls

The final light of day.
