Lyrics

Poison pen can there be no end
The words on the page
Make you no man's friend
Change a man's fate
With a drop of a line
What your gonna write about next time
Bite like a snake
But it's never too late to look
Yourself in the eye
You're gonna have to pay for all you say
Before your ink runs dry

Poor mr. pen you're the devils friend
You talk so much there ain't no end
Is it a game to wreck my mind
When you print your name at the top of the line
The bite of a snake
Is easier to take
'Cause once that ink is dry
The venom's on the page
Till you end your days
Makes me wonder why

Poison pen you're no man's friend
Wish I knew what's inside of you
Poison pen ain't there no end
To those men with the poison pen

Poison pen can there be no end
The words on the page
Make you no man's friend
Change a man's fate
With a drop of a line
What your gonna write about next time
Bite like a snake
But it's never too late to look
Yourself in the eye
You're gonna have to pay for all you say
Before your ink runs dry

Poison pen you're no man's friend
Wish I knew what's inside of you
Poison pen ain't there no end
To those men with the poison pen

Chorus:
Poison pen you're no man's friend
Wish I knew what's inside of you
Poison pen ain't there no end
To those men with the poison pen

Ooh poison pen
