[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
