lyrics

God called to the man: "Where are you?"
He was walking in the garden
in the cool of the day
When the man and his wife heard him
They got scared
And they hid among the trees of the garden.

(GOD)
"Where are you?"

(Adam)
I heard you in the garden,
And I was afraid because I was naked; so I hide.
(God)
Who told you... you were naked?
Have you eaten from the tree
That I commanded you not to eat from?

(Adam)
The woman gave me some fruit from the tree
(Eva)
The serpent deceived me, and I ate.

(God)
Snakes of paradise, I want you to know
Wherever you hide, wherever you run away
I will give chase always breathing down your neck
Owe me the innocence of my creation

(Snake)
I was innocent, my only will was to survive
But something break down on me
I saw my actions and where they was carrying me

(God)
“Cursed are you above all livestock
you will eat dust all the days of your life.
I will put enmity between you and the woman,
she will crush your head, and you will strike her heel.

(Satan)
I was the best of angels, but for God not enough
How can the Lord prefered a woman and a man?
He have had to suffer and vengence will be mine
I will hit the love of God, his most precious thing

The snake was so perfect to implement the plan
And with my power I hacked its will

Snakes of paradise, I want you to know
wherever you are, wherever you bite the dust
You will forever have my gratitude
my evil plan now is done
thank you snake!
