One Good Drop Of Poison Lyrics

as every sun goes down
i get less and less impatient now
with every word i say
i'm getting less and less of anything
and if you have to fall to pieces
fall to pieces
and if you've got to fall apart
just fall apart

things are spinning along
from town to town with someone else's song
we're spinning out of control
and highway one they say is full of holes

and if you have to fall to pieces
fall to pieces
and if you've got to fall apart
just fall apart

the local rag says appearing on sunday
well that's news to me
'cause i'll be somewhere over lake inferior
crammed in a standby seat

the meek inherit nothing
and the nice guys don't get paid
if i had one good drop of poison
i'd be saved

the good guys finish second
and the meek just don't get paid
give me one good drop of poison
i'd be saved

so i just do what i'm told
you feed me anything and i'll be sold
'cause i could put up a fight
i'd just be wrong in someone else's right

the local rag says appearing on sunday
well that's news to me
'cause i'll be somewhere over lake inferior
crammed in a standby seat

the meek inherit nothing
and the nice guys don't get paid
if i had one good drop of poison
i'd be saved
i'd be saved
