People tell me you didn't know better,
Give me sermons 'bout the things I [bad word] to love 'em, even wrote letters,
You know I even asked it of you, I said,

I've been doing Poison,
I guess I poisoned my life,
I've been doing Poison,
it's better than marrying your wife

On the road, the pace is getting frantic,
Specially when your poisoned out your mind,
flight of stairs is like swimming the Atlantic,
When you're poisoned, deaf, dumb and blind,

I take my poison,
I guess I poisoned my life,
Been doing Poison,
I wish I'd 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,
He was Poison,
Guess he poisoned my life
He was Poison,
I wish my mother wasn't his wife, no!
