Poison Songtext / Lyric

I wanted you to be my promised land

I was young and naive, dreamed of Jeannie

And thought I loved Lucy

But Lucy has gone and so has my dream






Sure it's a wonderful life in the states

For the young who believe that the doughboy's

A friend of Bill Gates

Strike it rich and be nailed by a fruitcake one day

I saw your beauty and I felt the flow

Sensed the power of glory and

Worshipped the 4th of July

Didn't know what it means and how many have died



What will it be

Seize your final opportunity

For I can't tell

So name your poison



I sealed my fate in the Monterey Bay

Got a lox bagel sandwich instead of

A handfull o'sushi

The waitress' smile showed the juices within



I got a friend is as big as a whale

Leaving cracks in the pavement

And unable to read the scales

Munches fries, enchilladas and pork-chops all day
