Sidewinder

Standing in the Eden Garden

Lying in the shade

Sidewinder in the dirt

Grass cutting King of Spades

Sidewinder

Adam was combing hair

Eden was bearing fruit

(chorus):

Passion was in pain

Now the politics beware

Pandora's open box

Lock lay broken on the stairs

Eyes are open

Mouths are choking

The glass is broken bare

She said to me

Eyes that glow are yellow gold

Don't cross that sidewinder in the road

Smoke in the flower pots

Evening comes and leaves a blot

Lying to the leaving love

Planted from the Jah above

Sidewinder

Took a bite, bit her lip

Water running on the trip

(chorus)

Joker's wild, Eve is heavy

Adam got his lid flipped

Naked bones bright and white

Fruit was juicy, tree was stripped

Sidewinder

Fig leaf and fidgety

Better days on Adam's Eve

(chorus)
