Sugar Coma (Snakes On My Brain)
I am not 100% sure of the lyrics but it is one of my favorite songs so I gave it my best
shot. This track can be found on the Anticomp Folkilation CD.

Intro
x2
I was born in a high fashioned window breaking blood and drinking bones
Where a tear stained reflection and bad confrontations climb through in stereo
Being born into darkness gets cold before it gets warm
And I thought that my life was like comic books, or black flag 45s
If it goes out of print you forget about finding it on the other side
You were lucky to get what was scraped off the bottom rung
And everything you say is something that I should say back to you
And your slick forked tongue is the first one that Iâll put a barrel to, yeah
Itâs like Barry said self preservation, submission bein fed doesnât make you free
And like adam and steve I will not let these snakes get the best of me
I was top hats and whip-snaps and arctic sun from 5 to 17
With your two-liter bottles of bartles and james why, Iâm sure we made the team
And Iâm sorry, Iâm sorry, I just donât believe in coincidence
I know you were there âcause we planned it on the seventh Sabbath day
You gave your heart back to jesus got sober goin home, and got, killed along the way
You were shaking like ice in a glass that had yet to be poured
There is nothing like dyinâ to know what itâs like to be bored
And everything you say is something that I should say back to you
And your slick forked tongue is the first one that Iâll put a barrel to, yeah
Itâs like Barry said self preservation, submission doesnât make you free
And like adam and steve I will not let these snakes get the best of me
x2
If they cut the power and guided by voices, Iâm singing to myself like I ever had the
choice and were staying right here cause nothing gets better than this x4
And everything you say is something that I should say back to you
And your slick forked tongue is the first one that Iâll put a barrel to, yeah
Itâs like Barry said self preservation, submission doesnât make you free
And like adam and steve I will not let these snakes get the best of me
I will not let these snakes get the best of me x 3
