(Opening Monologue): “Alright, I could shift right now and show you what I really am, but… well, there’s this little charm to speak as an animal—haven’t bothered to learn it. (Chuckles) “So you’ll have to settle for me telling you all about it or me just hisssssssing at you.” (Pauses) “Trust me, it’s more fun this way. Venom? Not my style… but a sharp tongue? That’s where the real bite is.” (Verse 1): I’m a snake with a stinger, but it’s just for show, No venom here, no deadly blow. The poison’s all on my tongue, you see, Words bite harder when they’re sharp and free. No toxin drips from my fangs tonight, I’ll prod and poke until you bite. But why use venom when a grin will do? I’d kill you with kindness before I’d bother with poison. (Chorus): Hiss, hiss, a little sting, But don’t expect me to poison a thing. I’d rather poke and watch you squirm, Than let venom take its lazy turn. My tail’s sharp, it’ll prod your pride, But I don’t need poison to take a ride. I’d sooner speak and make you fall, Than wait for venom’s slow, dull crawl. (Verse 2): I slither smooth, I know my game, But venom’s boring, always the same. Why wait for it to seep and spread, When words will twist inside your head? I’ll prod you here, I’ll prod you there, But I don’t sting to wound or tear. I just like watching people jump, Their little flinches give me a bump. (Chorus): Hiss, hiss, a little sting, But don’t expect me to poison a thing. I’d rather poke and watch you squirm, Than let venom take its lazy turn. My tail’s sharp, it’ll prod your pride, But I don’t need poison to take a ride. I’d sooner speak and make you fall, Than wait for venom’s slow, dull crawl. (Bridge): “Why would I waste venom? It takes too long. I’d rather watch you wonder where you went wrong.” (Hisses softly, laughing) Snake or not, I’ve got no need, For venom to watch your ego bleed. My stinger’s empty, my bite’s clean, I leave no trace, no venom unseen. But watch your back, I love the game— The prodding’s where I make my name. (Chorus (Refrain)): Hiss, hiss, a little sting, But don’t expect me to poison a thing. I’d rather poke and watch you squirm, Than let venom take its lazy turn. My tail’s sharp, it’ll prod your pride, But I don’t need poison to take a ride. I’d sooner speak and make you fall, Than wait for venom’s slow, dull crawl. (Final Verse): I’m the snake without a bite, My words are sharper in the night. Venom’s no fun, it’s too direct, But watching you flinch? Now that’s perfect. So don’t expect poison, don’t expect fear, Just a little prod to keep you near. I’ll laugh and hiss and poke for fun— A stinger’s game is never done. (Hisses softly) “There, you’ve been warned.”
