Lyrics Poison - Laurie Anderson

Poison

It was one of those black cat nights the moon had gone out and the air was thin
it was the kind of night that the cat would drag in. Ill never forget it,
we had a fight.
then you turned around
D on the light.
you left our bed.
then you moved downstairs to live with her
instead.
yeah just one floor and a shout away, I guess I should have moved but
I decided to stay.
did I drink some po That I dont remember now?
and every night I open all the windows I let a cold
dark wind blow through.
I play loud organ music and I talk to myself and dream
of you.
uh oh!
I hear voices coming
Rough the pipes through all the springs in my bed and up through the lights the
volume goes up then it drops back down I can hear the two of you playing
records moving furniture and fooling arou
Id I drink some poison that I dont remember now?
is there blood on my hands/ no,
my hands are clean.
did I do something in another lifetime that was really
really mean?
yeah, Im hearing voices
I losing my mind?
think Im g Oing craz, I gotta get out.
I run into the street and I start to shout get ou of my way!
get out!
get out!
did I drink some poison that I dont remember now?
is there blood on my hands?
did I do Thing in another lifetime that was really really mean?
a small bullet,
a piece of glass and your heart just grows around it.
