  • Yeah, Spyderman and Freeze in full effect
    Uh-huh
    You ready, Ron?
    I'm ready
    You ready, Biv?
    I'm ready, Slick, are you?
    Oh, yeah, break it down

    Girl I must warn you
    I sense something strange in my mind
    (Yeah) Yo, situation is serious
    Let's cure it 'cause we're running out of time
    (Tell 'em Rick) It's all so beautiful

    Relationships they seem from the start
    Yeah, it's all so deadly
    When love is not together from the heart
    Check it out

    It's driving me out of my mind
    That's why it's hard for me to find
    Can't get it outta my head
    Miss her, kiss her, love her (wrong move you're dead)

    That girl is poison
    Never trust a big butt and smile
    That girl is poison (poison)

    If I were you I'd take precaution
    Before I step to meet a fly girl
    You know 'cause in some portions
    You'll think she's the best thing in the world

    She's so fly, she'll drive you right out of your mind
    Steal your heart when you're blind
    Beware she's schemin', she'll make you think you're dreamin'
    You'll fall in love and you'll be screamin' demon, ooh

    Poison deadly moving it slow
    Looking for a mellow fellow like DeVoe
    Getting paid laid so better lay low
    Schemin' on house, money, and the whole show

    The low pro hoe she'll be cut like an afro
    See what you sayin' huh?
    She's a winner to you but I know she's a loser
    How do you know? Me and the crew used to do her

    Poison, poison, poison, (poison) poison

    (Poison, poison, poison, p-poison)
    (Poison, poison, poison, p-poison, poison)
    (Poison, poison, poison, p-poison)
    (Poison, poison, poison, p-poison, poison)

    I was at the park shake, bakin', takin' 'em off
    And that night I played the wall
    Checkin' out the fellas the highs and lows
    Keepin' one eye open still clockin' the hoes
    There was one particular girl that stood out from the rest
    Poison as can be, the high power chest
    Michael Bivins here and I'm runnin' the show
    Bell, Biv DeVoe
    Now you know, yo, Slick, blow

    It's driving me out of my mind
    That's why it's hard for me to find
    Can't get it outta my head
    Miss her, kiss her, love her (wrong move, you're dead)

    That girl is poison (poison, poison)
    Never trust a big butt and smile (poison)
    Poison (poison, poison)
    She's dangerous (poison)

    Oh yeah (poison) oh yeah (poison, poison)
    (Poison) Yeah fellas, that was another dope one
    You know what I'm sayin', Mike?
    Yeah, B.B.D. In full effect
    Yo', wassup to Ralph T and Johnny G
    And I can't forget about my boy, B. Brown
    And the whole NE crew
    (Poison)
