Lyrics

[Verse 1]
People tell me you didn't know better
Give me sermons 'bout the things I do
I've come to love 'em, even wrote letters
You know I even answered a few, I said
[Verse 2]
I've been doing poison
I guess I poisoned my life
I've got my poison
It's better than marrying a wife
[Verse 3]
On the road, the pace is getting frantic
Especially when you're poisoned out your mind
A flight of stairs is like swimming the Atlantic
When you're poisoned and deaf, dumb and blind, I said
[Verse 4]
I take my poison
I guess I poisoned my life
I wish I was poisoned
I wish I'd poisoned my wife
[Verse 5]
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
[Verse 6]
He was poison
I know he poisoned my life
Yeah, he was poison
I wish my mother wasn't his wife, no
[Verse 7]
Poison
