Murray Lyrics: Slither sinner like a snake in the grass Wolf in sheep’s clothing with words made of glass Crept up upon me like a shadow on the wall Couldn’t prepare me for how heavy I would fall And I say ooh girl, step on the scene, don’t you know the world is so mean? Ooh girl, caught in between, don’t you know the grass ain’t green? Ooh girl, step on the scene, don’t you know the world is so mean? Ooh girl, caught in between, don’t you know the grass ain’t green? Smoke and mirror, what a spell you have cast Cruel predictions have all come to pass The earth is shaking and the sky is tumbling down Shaking my tree ‘til my leaves fall to the ground And I said fall to the ground, fall to the ground Fall to the, fall to the, fall to the ground And I said ooh girl, step on the scene, don’t you know the world is so mean? Ooh girl, caught in between, don’t you know the grass ain’t green? Ooh girl, step on the scene, don’t you know the world is so mean? Ooh girl, caught in between, don’t you know the grass ain’t green? Don’t you know the world is so mean? I’ma look to the mountains, look to the mountains, look to the mountains And I’ma take you to the sea Look to the mountains, look to the mountains, look to the mountains And I’m’a take you to the sea
