Armless
Snakes are dangerous
That's what most people say
If you don't startle them
They will just slide away
If you look closely
And study a snake
You'll see this presumption is all a mistake
Cos they have a head
Eyes mouth and a nose
They have a tongue
But no fingers or toes
They don't wear boots
And have no use for hose
Please don't feel sad for them
For it's very plain to see
Snakes are armless
As harmless as can be
