Here are the lyrics to Snakedriver:

I've got syphilitic hetro friends in every part of town

I don't hate them but I know them I don't want them hanging around

I won't roll my bones for every little girl who gets on down

I got space and space got me I should be selling it by the pound

Ever since I heard the voice

I thought I had no choice

but then I kissed her

I don't mind if I get broken I don't mind if I get fixed

I don't mind if I'm not spoken I don't mind if I get kicks

If I wake up dead I'll wake up just like any other day

And the photographs of god I bought have almost fade away

Everything just passes by

I thought it always would

but then I kissed her

Hey, hey, hey

Hey, hey, hey.....

Hey, hey, hey........
