Your cruel device
Your blood, like ice
One look, could kill
My pain, your thrill

I wanna love you but I better not touch (don't touch)
I wanna hold you, but my senses tell me to stop
I wanna kiss you but I want it too much (too much)
I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison, running through my veins
You're poison
I don't want to break these chains

Your mouth, so hot
Your web, I'm caught
Your skin, so wet
Black lace, on sweat

I hear you calling and it's needles and pins (and pins)
I wanna hurt you just to hear you screaming my name
Don't want to touch you but you're under my skin (deep in)
I wanna kiss you but your lips are venomous poison
You're poison, running through my veins
You're poison
I don't want to break these chains
Poison

One look, could kill

Overall Meaning

The song "Poison" by Alice Cooper is about a toxic and dangerously addictive love affair. The lyrics describe the singer's conflicting feelings for his lover, who he is deeply attracted to but also realizes is bad for him. He describes her as a "cruel device," with blood like ice, and acknowledges that one look from her could kill him. He wants to love her and hold her, but his senses tell him to stop, and he's torn between wanting to kiss her and fearing that her lips will poison him. The song is full of vivid and sensual imagery, with descriptions of the lover's hot mouth, wet skin, black lace, and screams.

The chorus repeats the refrain "you're poison, running through my veins," emphasizing the addictive and destructive nature of the relationship. The singer acknowledges that he is caught in the web of his lover, and even though he wants to break free from the chains of their toxic love, he can't seem to resist her. The lyrics suggest that the singer is both repulsed and attracted by the sensuality and danger of his lover, making for a complex and emotionally charged song.

And I love rap. Actually MC rap such as Eminem NF, Royce 5’9, Joyner, Kendrick etc. the double and triple meaning bars, Easter eggs, rap is just music that makes you think and you have to have a poet’s ear

I lived in the middle of nowhere when I was a kid. No one came through on tour. But Alice did and most importantly he brought Motorhead as the opening act.

I love how the 80's visual aesthetic was so intentionally campy and over the top that it goes all the way around to become ironically immortalized as the sexiest, most stylish thing in history.
