Lyrics to Poison

Over the top

People tell me you didn't know better,

Give me sermons 'bout the things that I do,

Couple of 'em even wrote letters,

You know I even answered a few, I said,

I've been doing poison,

I guess I poisoned my life,

I know about poison,

It's better than marrying a wife, oh

On the road the pace is getting frantic,

'Specially when your poisoned out your mind,

A flight of stairs is like swimming the Atlantic,

When you're poisoned and deaf, dumb and blind, I say

I take my poison,

I guess I poisoned my life,

I wish I was poison,

I wish I had poisoned my wife

My Father, he used to be a Preacher,

Never taught me nothing but scorn,

If I ever catch him on the street, yeah,

I'll make him wish he'd never been born because,

He was poison,

I know he poisoned my life

He was poison,

I wish my mother wasn't his wife, no!

Poison
