Natalie Holmes - Snakes & Ladders

We claim to be wise when we are just fools,
Tiptoeing round and changing the rules, (ooh).
The world wasn’t made so we could be seen,
We climb to the top, see how loud we can scream, (ooh).

Like snakes and ladders we rise and fall,
Nothing mattered when we were just this tall.

Back then if we fell we just had to cry,
We’d be back on our feet in the blink of an eye, (ooh).
Get down off your horse, get mud on your shoes,
Face down on the ground we all have the same view, (ooh).

Like snakes and ladders we rise and fall,
Nothing mattered when we were just this tall.

Ooh, ooh, ooh….(x4)

Close your eyes,
Shake the dice,
Throw it down.
It’s not a race, don’t let it break you now.

Close your eyes,
