(jack hues)



Let's rent a place in town

Somewhere we can call our own

Let's knock these barriers down

We need to spend some time alone

Everything in the world has a name

Oh doesn't it make you feel

Like you've moved into a rented apartment

Everything is real

But it doesn't belong to you



Chorus:

All the words are deadso we need to

Snakedance

All the words are deadso we need to

Snakedance



Let's get that empty room

But first I really must be sure

Every wordevery name you know

Will vanish when we close the door



Just say oh (all the words are dead)

Just say yeah (so we need to snakedance)

Just say ugh (all the words are dead)

Just say ooo (so we need to snakedance)



Wrap yourself around me

Help me start again

Wrap yourself around me

And girl let's snakedance

Snakedance

Don't give me talkinggive me snakedance



All the words are deadso we need to

Snakedance

Nothing more be saidso we need to

Snakedance



If logic is a glass bead game

And science is an iron wheel

And your life is a riderless horse

Dragging you by the heel

You need a place where you can concentrate

On what it is to be

Don't thinkdon't speak any language

The silence in the room

Is all that belongs to you



Wrap yourself around me

Help me start again

Wrap yourself around me

And girl let's snakedance



Repeat chorus twice
