Lyrics

[Verse 1] I like my town with a little drop of poison Nobody knows they're lining up to go insane I'm all alone, I smoked my friends down to the filter But I feel much cleaner after it rains [Chorus] And she left in the fall, that's her picture on the wall She always had that little drop of poison [Verse 2] Did the devil make the world while god was sleeping? You'll never get a wish from a bone Another long goodbye and a hundred sailors That deep blue sky is my home [Chorus] And she left in the fall, that's her picture on the wall She always had that little drop of poison [Verse 3] And the rat always knows when he's in with weasels Here you lose a little every day Well, I remember when a million was a million They all have ways to make you pay [Chorus] And she left in the fall, that's her picture on the wall She always had that little drop of poison [Chorus] And she left in the fall, that's her picture on the wall She always had that little drop of poison
