Little Drop of Poison
I like my town
With a little drop of poison
Nobody knows they're linin' up to go insane
I'm all alone
I smoke my friends down to the filter
But I feel much cleaner after it rains
And she left in the fall
That's her picture on the wall
She always had that little drop of poison
Did the devil
Make the world while God was sleeping?
You'll never get a wish from a bone
Another wrong goodbye
And a hundred sailors
That deep blue sky is my home
And she left in the fall
That's her picture on the wall
She always had that little drop of poison
Well a rat
Always knows when he's in with weasels
Here you lose a little everyday
Well I remember
When a million was a million
They all have ways to make you pay
And she left in the fall
That's her picture on the wall
She always had that little drop of poison
And she left in the fall
That's her picture on the wall
She always had that little drop of poison
With a little drop of poison
Nobody knows they're linin' up to go insane
I'm all alone
I smoke my friends down to the filter
But I feel much cleaner after it rains
And she left in the fall
That's her picture on the wall
She always had that little drop of poison
Did the devil
Make the world while God was sleeping?
You'll never get a wish from a bone
Another wrong goodbye
And a hundred sailors
That deep blue sky is my home
And she left in the fall
That's her picture on the wall
She always had that little drop of poison
Well a rat
Always knows when he's in with weasels
Here you lose a little everyday
Well I remember
When a million was a million
They all have ways to make you pay
And she left in the fall
That's her picture on the wall
She always had that little drop of poison
And she left in the fall
That's her picture on the wall
She always had that little drop of poison
