The Poisoners |
| We corrupted Swiss chocolate |
| We laced it with strychnine |
| And said we’d only stop it |
| For a cool six million |
| We corrupted Swiss chocolate |
| And moved to the Philippines |
| We’ve come to know exactly |
| What being fabulously wealthy means |
| (It's beautiful) |
| And the times I feel guilty |
| For the children who died |
| I press my ear to Jenny’s belly |
| And hear our child inside |
| A boy or a girl? |
| A victor or victim? |
| New life made possible by strychnine |
| Born into a world of cyanide |
| They call us the poisoners |
| But we knew |
| Being decent and humane |
| Folk without a brain |
| Sneezing in the rain |
| Would never do |
| We’d rather be poisoners |
| Than prisoners like you |
| They call us the poisoners |
| We got rich quick |
| But the world got sick |
| Before we slipped the strychnine in the bar |
| We’d rather be poisoners than losers |
| Like you are |
| We moved to Manila |
| We golf on the golf green |
| With all the other killers |
| Who know exactly what it’s like to win |
| (It's wonderful) |
