Pretty Poison Lyrics by Tall Dwarfs

1985

Shallow water let me through
Let me slip and slide in you
Wet and wicked make me ill
Into my veins throb and spill your love
And I will steal and worship you

Callous liquid take my hand
Pretty poison understand my joy
Set in amber like a fly
A million memories must die away
And I will love and cherish you

And in the sky the thunder grows
The swift ambitious lightning shows me how
How to approach and stay with you
