Lyrics:

[English]

Every night around about this time

It's like she knows I'm lonely

Rolls up when the wine is gone like a record on repeat

Leanin' on old memories

And talkin' 'bout what used to be

She'll probably be the death of me

But, damn, if it ain't sweet

She's my pretty little poison

My heartache in the night

With a kiss on her lips just like cyanide

Yeah, she came with a warning

But I didn't mind

I'll go out on that high every time

She's my pretty little poison

My pretty little poison

Shadows dancin' down the hall

Whispers that she wants me

Try my best not to fall when she falls into me

We all need some kinda fix

For me, she's the one I pick

Nothin' else will do the trick

She's all I need

She's my pretty little poison

My heartache in the night

With a kiss on her lips just like cyanide

Yeah, she came with a warning

But I didn't mind

I'll go out on that high every time

She's my pretty little poison

My pretty little poison

For some, I guess, it's alcohol

I don't want none at all

I just want you

No, I just want you

My pretty little poison

My heartache in the night

With a kiss on her lips just like cyanide

Yeah, she came with a warning

But I didn't mind

I'll go out on that high every time

She's my pretty little poison

My pretty little poison

She's my pretty little poison
