Poisonous Lovin'

from The Red Album by Charles Michael

/

about

a funk/soul inspired track about a toxic relationship, with an auditory representation of what the inside of my head sounds like at the end. key is A minor.

lyrics

(Something is bubbling...
Bubbling, bubbling, bubbling...
Bubbling...
Bubbling, bubbling...
Daddy...)

(I'd rather die tomorrow
Than live a hundred years without knowing you.)
(And-and I-I look at you, and I'm... I'm home...)
(Woah oh oh oh)

You got that poisonous love
That's gonna kill me when I die-ie-ie
Yeah, you got that poisonous love
That's gonna kill me when I die
Cos when you bit me like that snake
I hung my head and I cried
(Woah oh oh oh)

You got the serpent's sense of touch
That makes me wanna say your name
You got the serpent's sense of touch
That doesn't make me feel the same
And when you bite me with your words of hate
All my precious feelings change
(Woah oh oh oh)

(Poisonous lovin')
Your kisses and hugs were just a distraction
(Poisonous lovin')
You used my love to get some action
(Poisonous lovin')
My love to you was like a transaction
(Poisonous lovin')
You gave me hell while I gave you compassion

Oh my baby
Your love is poisonous
You said I was crazy
But I told you there was more than this
You're so lazy
But you told me to go get a job
I don't wanna marry
A hypocritical douchebag slob

You got that poisonous love
That's gonna kill me when I die
Yeah, you got that poisonous love
That's gonna kill me when I die
Cos when you bit me like that snake
I hung my head and I cried
(Woah oh oh oh)

Cry
Why don't you cry for me
Die
You said you'd die for me
Lie
I knew you'd lied to me
Why'd you say goodbye to me?

(And now, an auditory representation of what the inside of my head sounds like...)

Ahhh! Raaah! Reeee! Ohhh! etc...

(I don't understand...)
