"Snake In The House" lyrics

The door stood wide open, he knew there was something wrong
He ran through the house and found that she was gone
It looked like a Texas twister had cut a path through there
He found these words in lipstick on the bathroom mirror

There's a snake in the house and he's been shedding skin
Leaving behind signs of where he's been
Now, I'm telling you, if it's the last things that you do
There's a snake in the house, get it out

Now, right below these words, piled up in the sink
He saw his shirt with lipstick on it, the color cheap and pink
And the bill from a room that he'd signed Mr. Smith
But the way he signs a dotted line is something she can't miss

There's a snake in the house and he's been shedding skin
Leaving behind signs of where he's been
Now, I'm telling you, if it's the last things that you do
There's a snake in the house, get it out

Ain't no way around it, it's the poison kind
Just one bite could kill true love every time

There's a snake in the house and he's been shedding skin
Leaving behind signs of where he's been
Now, I'm telling you, if it's the last things that you do
There's a snake in the house, get it out
Now, I'm telling you, make this the last thing that you do
And before I get back, get out
