[Verse 1]
He’s the godhead of the two step
About as far as he’s concerned
Yeah, his boot prints stomp and skid
Strange patterns in the dirt
Always tuned in to a duet
He hears carried on the wind
He sings alone in a rough baritone
Rain dripping off his chin
[Bridge]
He throws cans at landing planes
From his spot near the runway
He knows he’ll see it someday
He’ll see the sky open up
[Verse 2]
But when his eyes close, she’s in nightclothes
And she hasn’t aged a day
He lets the girl that he sees lead his feet
In a drunken figure eight
And the pilots with eagle eyes
Get a kick out of watching him
Shake his ass like a snake in the grass
That never learned to shed its skin
[Outro]
They’re up there watching him
Slither in the rain
They’re always watching him
Slither in the rain
Watch him
Slither in the rain
He’s the godhead of the two step
About as far as he’s concerned
Yeah, his boot prints stomp and skid
Strange patterns in the dirt
Always tuned in to a duet
He hears carried on the wind
He sings alone in a rough baritone
Rain dripping off his chin
[Bridge]
He throws cans at landing planes
From his spot near the runway
He knows he’ll see it someday
He’ll see the sky open up
[Verse 2]
But when his eyes close, she’s in nightclothes
And she hasn’t aged a day
He lets the girl that he sees lead his feet
In a drunken figure eight
And the pilots with eagle eyes
Get a kick out of watching him
Shake his ass like a snake in the grass
That never learned to shed its skin
[Outro]
They’re up there watching him
Slither in the rain
They’re always watching him
Slither in the rain
Watch him
Slither in the rain
