Snake Princess

A snake in a wild, lovely and rare
She wears a leather cloth with a cling on her tail
Beautiful to look at but she is too cold
Don't make her jealous or wrath will unfold

Let me tell you now the story of a snake
She lived in a paradise near a mystic lake
Once she had a friend who treasured her most
But time came to change the fate of them both.

A man went to lake and met a young girl
Both fell in love and worlds gone to twirl
This jealous black snake saw the spark on their eyes
She began to crawl on ground wearing bunch of stupid lies

Seductively trying to get the man's attention
Her filthy ill tongue was her secret potion
She broke the love that was built by small time
Nothing was left except for a bottle of wine

Wandered her eyes in a vast quiet lake
Felt too good to herself for she loves to be fake
But one thing that the girl realized that she was still the winner
Despite tears on her eyes, she swore not to friend with a sinner
