Tom Waits
Little Drop of Poison
[Verse 1]
I like my town with a little drop of poison
Nobody knows they're lining up to go insane
I'm all alone, I smoked my friends down to the filter
But I feel much cleaner after it rains

[Chorus]
And she left in the fall, that's her picture on the wall
She always had that little drop of poison

[Verse 2]
Did the devil make the world while god was sleeping?
You'll never get a wish from a bone
Another long goodbye and a hundred sailors
That deep blue sky is my home

[Chorus]
And she left in the fall, that's her picture on the wall
She always had that little drop of poison

[Verse 3]
And the rat always knows when he's in with weasels
Here you lose a little every day
Well I remember when a million was a million
They all have ways to make you pay
[Chorus]
And she left in the fall, that's her picture on the wall
She always had that little drop of poison

[Chorus]
And she left in the fall, that's her picture on the wall
She always had that little drop of poison
