Too dangerous to keep.
Too feeble to let go.
And you want to bite the hand.
Should have stopped this long ago.
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/c/church/reptile_20031265.html ]
Go now, you've been set free.
Another month or so you'll be gorging on me ("poisoning me" on 2nd and 3rd times)
With your lovely smile.
I see you slither away with your skin and your tail,
Your flickering tongue and your rattling scales
Like a real reptile.

Had you coiled around my arm.
How could you ever know
How I loved your diamond eyes?
But that was long ago. (Chorus)

And I should have believed Eve.
She said we had to blow.
She was the apple of my eye.
It wasn't long ago. (Chorus)
