Corrosion Of Conformity Lyrics

The Snake Has No Head Lyrics

Invalid at last smothers the working class
Nihilist to be turns the scrape into a gash
Walkin' tall and ignorant, this man is now a militant
Deceiving the prophets confession
To release this endless aggression

One is the soul amplified suicide keeps the masses terrified
But there's nothing to kill, nothing to kill
Nothing left unsaid 'cause the snake has no head

But the body fills with greed and we spill it when in need
And all the slaves are on probation
Growing fat in a comfortable nation
So the snake keeps on recruiting
We need one more royal shooting
Nothing left to lose so we create another wound

One is the soul amplified suicide keeps the masses terrified
But there's nothing to kill, nothing to kill
Nothing left unsaid 'cause the snake has no head

Fear of death is gain, consuming the weak in shame
It's a power we can't see but it leaves ourselves to blame
Shameless mourn another day, slithering sins fade away
But the snake's just a pawn and remains when we are gone
