[Verse 1]
The door stood wide open, he knew there was something wrong
He ran through the house and found that she was gone
It looked like a Texas twister had cut a path through there
He found these words in lipstick on the bathroom mirror

[Chorus]
There's a snake in the house and he's been shedding skin
Leaving behind signs of where he's been
Now, I'm telling you, if it's the last things that you do
There's a snake in the house, get it out

[Verse 2]
Now, right below these words, piled up in the sink
He saw his shirt with lipstick on it, the color cheap and pink
And the bill from a room that he'd signed Mr. Smith
But the way he signs a dotted line is something she can't miss

[Chorus]
There's a snake in the house and he's been shedding skin
Leaving behind signs of where he's been
Now, I'm telling you, if it's the last things that you do
There's a snake in the house, get it out

[Bridge]
Ain't no way around it, it's the poison kind
Just one bite could kill true love every time
[Chorus]
There's a snake in the house and he's been shedding skin
Leaving behind signs of where he's been
Now, I'm telling you, if it's the last things that you do
There's a snake in the house, get it out
Now, I'm telling you, make this the last thing that you do
And before I get back, get out
