Night Birds - Pretty Poison lyrics

I wanna start a tiny fire
I've got a mission and I intend to act
- they're gonna think that I'm a liar
Needed a partner and I found her fast

I used to work down at the makeup factory
They're dumping waste into the riverbed
I'm the only one who knows how to stop them
I'm not making this up I swear

Pretty poison so young oh so pure
Pretty poison I'd do anything for her
Pretty poison always does the trick
How would I know that she'd get me so sick
I think I'm in over my head
She wants to kill her mom and pin the blame
On me now I'm afraid I'll end up dead
So lock me up and throw away the key

I read about a couple in the newspaper
They were caught in lascivious carriage
We did the same and now I'm trapped
It's not a lie, not a lie, not a lie

Pretty poison so young oh so pure
Pretty poison I'd do anything for her
Pretty poison always does the trick
How would I know that she'd get me so sick

I'm not going back to the padded room
I'm going back to a cold hard cell
I'm not going back to the padded room
I'm going back to a cold hard cell
I'm not going back to the padded room
I'm going back to a cold hard cell
Cold hard cell cold hard cell
