When the Chips are Down [”Songbird vs rattlesnake] [Intro] lyrics

[HERMES]

Songbird versus rattlesnake

[FATES]

Mmm...

[EURYDICE, spoken]

What is it?

[HERMES, spoken]

Eurydice was a hungry, young girl

[FATES]

Mmm...

[HADES, spoken]

Your ticket

[HERMES, spoken]

And Hades gave her a choice to make

[FATES]

Mmm...

Mmm...

Mmm...

[HERMES, spoken]

A ticket to the underworld
