you need a little bit of poison
you need a little bit of poison
you need a little bit of poison
to keep you strong

first love is the hardest
cut you like a knife
if it doesn't kill you
you get on with your life
wind and rain and stormy weather
love and pain just run together

you need a little bit of poison
you need a little bit of poison
you need a little bit of poison
to keep you strong

second time sweet and kind
look out or you'll fall
think you'll leave her love behind
it ain't that way at all
she's on your mind night and day
but she's a million miles away

you need a little bit of poison
you need a little bit of poison
you need a little bit of poison
to keep you strong

the way you love me leaves me weak
too weak to even cry
if you go you'll kill me
girl, don't even try
first a little then a little more
make me forget where I been before

I need a little bit of poison
I need a little bit of poison
I need a little bit of poison
to keep me strong
