Slow Poison

[Verse 1]

Burn, burn house on fire

I'm so sick and tired

I can still remember your sound

It is cut, cut, cutting me down

I'm locked and loaded

You're so milk and roses

And I am just a lapdog, I'm your hound

It is cut, cut, cutting me down

[Chorus]

Like a slow poison

Cut me down like a slow poison

[Verse 2]

Sing me one more hymnal

I have found my angel

Oh, oh, oh, she walks upon the ground

It is cut, cut, cutting me down

I'm an empty can

I'm a stranger in a strange, strange land

Gone, gone, just gone without a sound

It is cut, cut, cutting me down

[Chorus]

Like slow poison

Cutting down like slow poison

[Bridge]

And all my dreams are only dreams

And all my schemes are only schemes

And if this is my punishment

Then I want my crime to fit

Burn, burn house on fire

I'm so sick and tired

I can still remember your sound

It is cut, cut, cutting me down

[Chorus]

Like slow poison

Cut down like slow poison

It's cutting me

Like slow poison

[Outro]

Sing me one more hymnal

I have found my angel

Oh, oh, oh, she walks upon the ground

It is cut, cut, cutting me down
