“Cottonmouth” serves as a bizarre closing track on the Melvin’s 1996 album Stag. The song starts after roughly three minutes of silence. The song is seemingly slowed down, in order to give the singer the illusion of singing as if his mouth were, in fact, full of cotton.
The term “cottonmouth” itse...
[Verse]
Mean little stealer you, got your head bowed down
I got a mouth full of cotton, duct taped down (That's right)
I've been drinking too much Lysol, and my heads bowed too
Yeah
Mean little stealer you, got your head bowed too
I've been drinking too much, yeah
And I got my head bowed down, uh huh
Uh huh
