[Verse 1]
               Em
Bright yellow eyes
                 Am
Staring into my soul
                   C
Singing sweet lullabies
                        B7
While they measure my skull

[Verse 2]
               Em
Turn off the lights
                    Am
Feel her rattle her bones
         Am7
A big appetite
                 B7
Forcing me to let go

[Pre-Chorus]
          Em
رح تبلعني أنا
              Am
ترقص وأنا بغنيلها
              C
حيه جاي من السما
                B7
راس براس أنا واياها

[Chorus]
                         Cadd9
Hear the serpent, it calls me
                  B7
And it's getting loud
         Cadd9
ومع دقات قلبي
          B7
عم بسكر بواب

[Verse 3]
            Em
Slimy and thick, a thing of many
         Em
faces lurking in the warm
            Am
Give it a smile, بسيطر على جسمي,
Am
'til I am no more
              C
Speaking my language but I
             C
don't understand it. no, no
 B7
دمي فيو سم
 B7
ولا سمي فيو دم؟

[Verse 4]
            Em
Under the influence,
I do her bidding,
 Em
working like a charm
              Am
Follow the whispering,
like gimme this, gimme that,
 Am
gimme all that I want
               C
Speaking her language, though
             C
I never learned it, no, no
 B7
دمي فيو سم
 B7
ولا سمي فيو دم؟
