Fangs
Frank Carter The Rattlesnakes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Your golden legs they hipnotize
I am driven mad with lust
And I know your mouth ain't one to trust
But I can't help but want to feel
Your teeth against my skin
If you got fangs then sink'em in
With you hood pulled up
Ready for attack
As pale as a winter moon
And I'm locked into your heart shaped tomb
They way you move is so divine
It's sending shivers through my spine
And I am locked into your gaze
And you are locked in mine
But I can't help but want to feel
Your teeth against my skin
If you got fangs them sink'em in
And while the cobras dance
Around your feet like you're a god
It only takes one bite for you to realise you are not
And while the cobras dance
Around your feet like you're a god
It only takes one bite for you to realise you are not
But I can't help but want to feel
Your teeth against my skin
If you got fangs them sink'em in
But I can't help but want to feel
Your teeth against my skin
If you got fangs them sink'em in

Sway your hips from side to side
Move your hips rhythmically
Your golden legs they hypnotize
Your beautiful legs captivate me
I am driven mad with lust
I am overwhelmed with desire
And I know your mouth ain't one to trust
I am aware that you are not trustworthy
But I can't help but want to feel
Despite knowing better, I still desire
Your teeth against my skin
I want to feel your bite
If you got fangs then sink'em in
If you have sharp teeth, use them on me
There you stand, all dressed in black
You are dressed in dark clothing
With you hood pulled up
Your hood is covering your head
Ready for attack
You are prepared to strike
As pale as a winter moon
Your skin is very light in color
And I'm locked into your heart shaped tomb
I am trapped in your embrace
They way you move is so divine
Your dance is heavenly
It's sending shivers through my spine
Your movements gives me chills
And I am locked into your gaze
I am captivated by your eyes
And you are locked in mine
You are also captivated by me
But I can't help but want to feel
My desire overpowers me
Your teeth against my skin
I want you to bite me
If you got fangs them sink'em in
Use your sharp teeth on me
And while the cobras dance
As the snakes move
Around your feet like you're a god
Around you as if you have divine powers
It only takes one bite for you to realise you are not
One false move will expose your vulnerability
And while the cobras dance
As the snakes move
Around your feet like you're a god
Around you as if you have divine powers
It only takes one bite for you to realise you are not
One false move will expose your vulnerability
But I can't help but want to feel
Despite knowing the risks, I still desire
Your teeth against my skin
I yearn for your bite
If you got fangs them sink'em in
Use your sharp teeth on me

this song is an explosive kick in the teeth, packed with venom, LIFE, and juuuuust enough time to slow down before we're brought right back into the anthem.
Is it he who is the God of snakes
or are they simply
circling their next meal?
time will tell. time will tell.
If you got fangs,
then sink 'em in.

This is the first song that me and the Rattlesnakes put out a while back, it’s a violent, passionate and fiercely dangerous song that sums up this band and what I am doing now.
It feels amazing to be back, and to play this live is insane. If you’ve been with us at a show you’ll know what I mean.

@Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes Welcome back mate! Glad to see you are hyped by how everything came along till now and I wish you lads good luck. Pure Love was a different thing and I really liked it, but goddamn I missed the energy of these hardcore tracks! Can't wait to hear the album and I hope one day you'll do an eastern-european tour. Big up from Romania.
