Lyrics

Poison

You're scared of snakes
I'm scared of you
'Cause you've got poison
Like them too
You shed on me
I pick it up
And all I do is clean up after you
The poison, you say you got it from your mother
The poison, there isn't anyone else to blame
Ba-da-da-da-da-dum
Ba-da-da-da-da-da-dum
Ba-da-da-da-da-dum
I caught you once
You tried to bite, you tried to scream
Maybe the poison is floating in my genes
The poison, you say you got it from some others
The poison, there isn't anyone else to blame
Ba-da-da-da-da-dum
Ba-da-da-da-da-da-dum
Ba-da-da-da-da-dum
You need to learn
To sweep up your tracks
'Cause if you don't, well, it's gonna get you back
It's gonna get you back
It's gonna get you back
The poison, you didn't get it from your mother
The poison, there isn't anyone else to blame
Ba-da-da-da-da-dum
Ba-da-da-da-da-da-dum
Ba-da-da-da-da-dum
I don't want your poison
Ba-da-da-da-da-dum
Ba-da-da-da-da-da-dum
Ba-da-da-da-da-dum
Ba-da-da-da-da-da-dum
Ba-da-da-da-da-dum
I don't want your poison
