Song of "The Snake" - A Metaphor for Muslim Immigration

Back in the early 70's when my brothers and I had a rock band, we liked to play a Johnny Rivers tune called "The Snake." I don't know why, but while contemplating the recent treachery of Muslim immigrants to Western nations,the words to this old song just popped into my head. I wonder if there is a connection?

Well duh! You judge. Here are the lyrics to that great old Rock tune.

THE SNAKE

On the way to work one morning
Down the path along side the lake
A tender hearted woman
Found a poor half-frozen snake

His pretty colored skin
Had been all frosted with the dew
'Poor thing' she cried, 'I'll take you in
And I'll take care of you.'

Take me in oh tender woman
Take me in for heaven's sake
Take me in oh tender woman
S-S-S-Sighed the Snake

She wrapped him up all cozy
In a comforter of silk
And laid him by the fireside
With some honey and some milk

She hurried home from work that night
And as soon as she arrived
She found that pretty snake she'd taken in had been revived.

Take me in oh tender woman
Take me in for heaven's sake
Take me in oh tender woman
S-S-S-Sighed the Snake

She clutched him to her bosom
'You're so beautiful' she cried
'But if I hadn't brought you in by now you might have died.'

Well she stroked his pretty skin again
And kissed him really tight,
Instead of saying thanks,
the snake gave her a vicious bite.

Take me in oh tender woman
Take me in for heaven's sake
Take me in oh tender woman
S-S-S-Sighed the Snake

'I saved you!' cried the woman
'And you've bitten me but why?'
'You know your bite is poisonous
And now I'm gonna die.'

'Ah shut up, silly woman.'
Said that reptile with a grin.
'You knew darn well I was a snake before you took me in.'

Take me in oh tender woman
Take me in for heaven's sake
Take me in oh tender woman
S-S-S-Sighed the Snake

Take me in oh tender woman
Take me in for heaven's sake
Take me in oh tender woman
S-S-S-Sighed the Snake
