If you can't see the parallel in the words to this song and what's happening in America today......then just delete. It's over your head.
(Recorded by Al Wilson and lyrics by Oscar Brown)
"On her way to work one morning
Down the path along side the lake
A tender hearted woman saw a poor half frozen snake.
His pretty colored skin had been all frosted with the dew
"Oh well," she cried, "Ill 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 tender woman, sighed the snake
She wrapped him up all cozy in a curvature of silk
And then laid him by the fireside with some honey and some milk.
Now she hurried home from work that night 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 tender woman, sighed the snake.
Now she clutched him to her bosom, "You're so beautiful" she cried
And if I hadn't brought you in by now you might have died.
Now she stroked his pretty skin again and then she held him tight
But instead of saying thanks, that snake gave her a vicious bite.
Take me in, oh tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake
Take me in tender woman, sighed the snake
"I saved you!" cried that woman
"And you've bitten me even...why?
And you know your bite is poisonous and now I'm gonna die"
"Ah shut up you silly woman" said the reptile with a grin,
"Now you knew darn well I was a snake before you brought me in"
Take me in, oh tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake
Take me in tender woman, sighed the snake....sighed the snake....take me in tender woman...sighed the snake.

Thanks again! I guess I'm not completely computer "illiterate", but I do need to graduate from 2nd grade! ;)
Reminds me of the frog and scorpion parable.
From the riverbank a Scorpion begs a frog for a ride across.
The Frog declines for fear the scorpion will sting him before reaching the other side.
"Why would I do that?" says the scorpion, "I would drown along with you."
The frog agrees, the scorpion climbs on. Half way across the river, the scorpion stings the frog.
As the frog and scorpion sink to their mutual deaths, the frog asks horrified, "Why would you do that, now we will both die?!"
The scorpion replies, "Because I'm a scorpion, it's what I do."
