Riders

[Verse 1]

I'm in a crowded room - I've been half-asleep

Says the sister in uniform

"Has everybody understood?"

The listeners turn and nod

But I can see their fear, do they know more than me

Do they know why they're here

[Chorus]

I don't want that poison in

I don't want that poison in

I don't want that poison in

Poison in

[Verse 2]

She passed around a potion - it went from lip to hand

I took a sip, a taste I didn't understand

The woman then explained that this was the juice that causes pain

That all great singers need

[Chorus]

I don't want that poison in

I don't want that poison in

I don't want that poison in

Poison in

[Verse 3]

I stumbled from the room

There must be some mistake

I do not want this seed

I think I'm in another's dream

But I can feel this creature flapping in my throat

I try and throw it up

But my cough turns to a choke

Put my fingers in my mouth

I have it by the head

It dug into my jaw

[Outro]

I threw the sucker to the floor

Threw the sucker to the floor

Threw the sucker to the floor

Threw the sucker to the floor

Threw the sucker to the floor

Threw the sucker to the floor

Threw the sucker to the floor

I don't want that sucker in

I don't want that sucker in

I don't want that sucker in

Sucker in

Sucker in

Sucker in

Sucker in...
