(Spoken: No holding back.)
VERSE
Step back, careful, you know what I could do.
After eighteen years, your suspicion is showing through.
I'm a firecracker popping; when I'm on, I'm off, the border of strange.
Bet you money, honey, come tomorrow that I'm not gonna change.
CHORUS
I'll be singing lullabies for rattlesnakes,
Taking chances I shouldn't take,
Be rattle-ing the hive from the inside out,
And dancing in shadows of a doubt.
I'll be singing lullabies for rattlesnakes,
Making trouble I shouldn't make,
Be knocking on the cage going "Let me in,"
Exactly how I have always been.
VERSE 2
Lean in, closer, you know you're curious.
How's a time bomb look, when it's time for it to combust.
I'm an elevator crashing to the ground, I was enjoying the view.
I met disaster, passed 'er, and I won't be playing safer for you.
MID-8
You, can say, I'm much, too much,
'Cause I'm a how instead of what.
(BV: I'll be singing lullabies… )
The way I'm jerkin' the chain, too much is never enoooough…
