I'm a kingsnake, baby
Slithering through the weeds
Like a crowbar with a poison tip
I'm a mass of wanton needs
I will lure you in
With my glossy scales
Then I'll squeeze you tight
Till I hear your screams and wails
Never gonna let you go
Never gonna let you go
Hsssssss
I'm a kingsnake, baby
Speckling in the brush
Just wanna seduce you
Be my main crush
Don't you worry much
I eat only rodent and frog
You gotta believe me, baby
I ain't no demagogue
They say red on black
Is a friend of jack
But red on yellow
It done kills a fellow
I'm a kingsnake, baby
Yeah I'm a powerful constrictor
Gonna glom on to you tightly
Till I'm the final victor
You will never be free of me
Once I got you in my grip
It's the way that I roll
My manner of courtship
