Skyclad

Skyclad are a British heavy metal band with heavy folk influences in their music. They are considered one of the pioneers of folk metal. The etymology behind the term "skyclad" comes from a pagan/wiccan term for ritual nudity, in which rituals are performed with the participants metaphorically clad only by the sky, as a sign of equality. The name alludes both to the bands' religious leanings and to their social beliefs, as set out in the song "Skyclad" on their first album. more »

You'll meet his kind in the strangest of places,
great what you find if you turn enough stones.
Legerdmain eyes wear the sweetest of faces,
you're quick to invite into your hearts and homes.

But the serpent and worms are his real kith and kin,
reptilian hiding inside human skin.

Snake Charming.

Horns start to show with the thrill of the slaughter,
true to his nature to others he's false.
Mothers should lock up their blossoming daughters,
he'll rape anything that has limbs and a pulse.

A bastard, a blaggard of the highest order,
his mind should be washed with soap and holy water.

Charming, the snake.
Charming, the snake.
Charming, the snake.
Charming, the snake.
It is never too late to be charming,
the Snake Charming.

The moment I strike, just when you think I'll kiss,
no good in a fight, I just wriggle and hiss.
A friend of bistiction with eyes that decieve,
I am the serpent, won't you be my Eve?

He's constantly searching (his eyes won't stay still) for,
something that's worth thirty pieces of silver.

Charming, the snake.
Charming, the snake.
Charming, the snake.
Charming, the snake.
It is never too late to be charming 
the Snake Charming.

He's welcome as Death at your wedding reception,
defying rejection, uninvited guest.
One foot in your door then both legs 'neath your table,
sly as a viper, your bossom his nest.

Creep like a sneak thief, snake through the grass,
to kiss Cleopatra, a pain in the asp.

Charming, the snake.
Charming, the snake.
Charming, the snake.
Charming, the snake.
It is never too late to be charming,
the Snake Charming.
