As quick as lightning the rattle snake strikes
Its poisonous venom parallising
To whom it is jealous and to whom it dislikes
It's hardly very surprising
The rattle snake is a beautiful thing
Filled with heart and evil
What more displeasure will it bring
For the good hearted and the feeble
Its sparkling smile, its rattling tail
This character is indeed a fake
This creature will use the poor and the frail
It's out for what it can get and take
If the rattle snake bites you
And you have a heart honest and pure
If you let the rattlesnake hurt you
Your heart will be broken for sure
