[Verse] I hear the voice of the rotted Earth We hear it in our dreams And the screamin' sounds of nature's curse Wakes us in our sleep The green alligators and long-necked geese And the bow-legged camel and the chimpanzee The rats in the river and the pigs in the street And the fangs of the Snake King [Pre-Chorus] I wanna scream I want to shout I wanna burn this fucker to the ground [Chorus] In the year of the Snake King We're in the year of the Snake King It's the year of the Snake King The year of the Snake King [Verse 2] In my younger days I would be amazed At the way that the world turns I would often wonder why the man in the sky Let his children burn I've reached an age where my feet on the ground I don't reach for the stars anymore The year of the Snake King has opened my eyes I see clearer than ever before [Pre-Chorus] I wanna scream I want to shout I wanna burn this fucker to the ground [Chorus] In the year of the Snake King We're in the year of the Snake King It's the year of the Snake King The year of the Snake King
