Snake Footprints

lyrics

I was on the beach at Romney
Waiting for a shipment to come down
Cargo of ketamine, i was listening to Straight Outta Compton

Suddenly Damage appeared round the point
The whole load had been seized 3 miles out
Now under lock and key, HMCE- and we're taking it back

Snake Footprints on the raid!
Magistrate- Be warned! Be warned!
Snake Footprints on the raid!
Officer- Be warned! Be warned!
Snake Footprints on the raid!
Landlord- Be warned! Be warned!
Snake Footprints on the raid!
Farm hand- Be warned! Be warmed!

30 strong we rode to the New Forest
Hidden out of sight till the next night
Swigging on extreme energy drinks from a hip flask passed round

The local boys all freaked when they saw the scene-
A gunboat within range bearing heavy clout,
Sentries armed to the teeth, out-numbering us 3 to 1

Snake Footprints on the raid!
Magistrate- Be warned! Be warned!
Snake Footprints on the raid!
Officer- Be warned! Be warned!
Snake Footprints on the raid!
Landlord- Be warned! Be warned!
Snake Footprints on the raid!
Farm hand- Be warned! Be warmed!

In the streets- Be warned! Be warned!
Tower block- Be warned! Be warned!
School yard- Be warned! Be warned!
Toilet- Be warned! Be warned!
Car Park- Be warned! Be warned!
Underpass- Be warned! Be warned!
Alleyway- Be warned! Be warned!
Cemetery- Be warned! Be warned!

Now, Jeremiah C was a brutal lout
took one by the neck and hissed right through his teeth
I'll spill your guts on the floor if you can't keep them together

Magistrate-Be warned! Be warmed!
Officer- Be warned! Be warmed!
Landlord- Be warned! Be warmed!
Farm hand- Be warned! Be warmed!
Shop Keeper- Be warned! Be warmed!
Teacher- Be warned! Be warmed!
Prison Guard- Be warned! Be warmed!
Vicar- Be warned! Be warmed!
Drinker- Be warned! Be warmed!
Street Sweeper- Be warned! Be warmed!
Customs Man- Be warned! Be warmed!
Rival Gang- Be warned! Be warmed!

We made away with everything inside
We made away with gunfire ringing out
