The dark highway curves sinuously Sinking here and rising there Mesmerizing you with its serpentine habit Ready to sink its fangs into you, if you're unwary.
As you speed into the night You will see carrier trucks turned turtle Their engines still running Their headlights tracking the stars.
You are advised by the wise Never to stop at unauthorized roadblocks, Or help anyone in distress but Pray for everyone's safety and good health.
You might wonder why we Just don't make good roads Or provide better safety for traffic Until your head aches.
You soon realize that It's better to strictly follow The poisonous trail and Be ready for the unexpected.
You must not relax Or let your car lurch into potholes, For what's the point to get bitten And then look for an antidote.
