the house was pretty and the yard was wide
and I felt strong, with you at my side
your eyes at night, had a beautiful glowing in them
and I knew in my heart, just what was growing in them

ah, but you made me drink poison
it felt smooth running down my throat
I love you and you made me drink poison
it was cool and smooth and sweet
do you remember

we had a bed of daisies thriving in the yard,
and I quit my job, so I could hold you all the time
I tried to stop the thing matastasizing in us,
but in the warm, slow evening,
I could feel it rising in us

ah, and you made me drink poison
it felt so smooth, sliding down my throat
I love you so much and you made me drink poison
it was cool and smooth and sweet and cool
and smooth and sweet and cool and smooth
