Soma City Ward Lyrics

Snakepit Soma City Ward

(Slash/Matt Sorum/Eric Dover)

 Skinny kid flippin' out
 A prissy little thing with a tan
 Was an outcast in the basement
 Tryin' anything he can
 The skirts spit words like razor blades
 To keep him off their trail
 He keeps a chant of silence
 For a mom
 The dirty rats is sellin' thing
 he can't afford
 He leaves his misery to play
 In the Soma City Ward
 Some City Ward

 Pieces of the son-of-a-bitch
 Float around the crow
 He wears his bad intentions
 like a cape or a shroud
 Then he blew his mind on Drano
 From his third story hotel room
 Yeah he missed the pool by inches
 So he won't be walkin' soon

 The dirty rat is seein' thing
 he can't ignore
 He left is body for a day
 In the Soma City Ward
 Soma City Ward
 All these people in his head
 Sayin' to jump out and you'll be free
 Come sleep in my demon bed
 Hope that you want it as bad as me

 The dirty rat is seein' things
 he can't ignore
 He leaves his misery to play
 In the Soma City Ward
 Soma City Ward
 Some City Ward
