The last verse about the snake...feeling its hearbeat and such. Anyone else getting any sexual connotations from that?

no

Well, there is at least some hints of it. Alex Scally had this to say in a Pitchfork interview bout the themes going through the album:

"I think the other records were more monochromatic in energy too and this one entertained a lot more feelings and a lot more shined through. And there is a lot of sickness, and there's sexuality and depravity, that's all there. So much of that is in there."

I definitely do. Especially since previously in the song:

"It's no good unless it grows, feel this burning, love of mine Deep inside the ever-spinning, tell me does it feel"
