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 sh** From getting to me Poison! In my mind Now I cannot think straight My skin's on fire Burn! Burn! Burn! POISON! POISON! POISON!
