Poison in the air
Now I can't breathe
Irritants in my eyes
So I can't see
Poison in the air
Blotches on my face
Underground lies toxic waste
Poison in the air
Tell me you don't care
Cos it's in my clothes
And in my hair
I stand by the kerb
Not a moment to observe
When I see it's head to tail
Hesitating to inhale
Now I'm wheezing
And the fumes have got me retching
Deep down in my lungs
A pocket of air is extricating
What I gotta do
Just tell me what I gotta do
To stop my face from turning blue
I can bury my head in the ground
Claim immunity
But it won't stop the s***
From getting to me
Poison! In my mind
Now I cannot think straight
My skin's on fire
Burn! Burn! Burn!
POISON!
POISON!
POISON!
Now I can't breathe
Irritants in my eyes
So I can't see
Poison in the air
Blotches on my face
Underground lies toxic waste
Poison in the air
Tell me you don't care
Cos it's in my clothes
And in my hair
I stand by the kerb
Not a moment to observe
When I see it's head to tail
Hesitating to inhale
Now I'm wheezing
And the fumes have got me retching
Deep down in my lungs
A pocket of air is extricating
What I gotta do
Just tell me what I gotta do
To stop my face from turning blue
I can bury my head in the ground
Claim immunity
But it won't stop the s***
From getting to me
Poison! In my mind
Now I cannot think straight
My skin's on fire
Burn! Burn! Burn!
POISON!
POISON!
POISON!
