A Snake Bite at the Quarry - Tamas Wells
I was sorry for the pain and the worry
And the first hand words of the man from the quarry
Won't take money pay his rent for a while
Want to borrow out a knife
To hollow out a skin to give him at the shop tomorrow
Window's covered page of the saturday sun
It's only a matter of time till the hands
On the tourniquet dried
Pain and the pressure relieved
The feeling under her knees
Was going by the hour until she could be received
I was sorry for the pain and hurried
With the grass snake photos all the way from the quarry
First road way car that was wandering round
The day was shattered but she said what mattered
Were the grease stains all around the seat we sat her
Wished that time we'd driven to the mornington side
It's only a matter of time till the hands
On the tourniquet dried
Pain and the pressure relieved
The feeling under her knees
Was going by the hour until she could be received
