Robin had it
My mother has it
My grandma had it
I guess I got it too
And once you've got it
It drains emotions
It sinks your feelings and all the life rafts too, ooh-ooh

Ooh, I got to have you
But I don't wanna pass on to you my

Poison blood, poison blood
Ooh, I got to have you
But poison blood poisons all the love
Ooh, I won't let it get you, no

Lincoln had it
My brother has it
My nephew had it
I guess I got it too
And once you've got it
It fills an ocean with fear and loathing and devastation too

Ooh, I got to have you
But I don't wanna pass on to you my

Poison blood, poison blood
Ooh, I got to have you
But poison blood poisons all the love
Ooh, I won't let it get you, boy

And it's not that I don't wanna live
It's the pain that I wish I could kill
All the times that I wanted to die
I made a choice, I was gonna survive
It's a blessing, a gift and a curse
Every day's a decision to stay with my

Poison blood, poison blood
Ooh, I got to have you
But poison blood poisons all the love
Ooh, I won't let it get you, no
