The poet’s a genius
It's something I don't see
Why would a genius be trippin' on me?

And there's looking and another
Why he can't see is that I'm looking through his eyes
So many lies behind his eyes
Now tell me stories from your past
And sing me songs you wrote before.

I tell u this my poison prince
You'll soon be knocking on Heaven's door.

Some kind of Poison Prince
With your eyes in daze
Some kind of Poison Prince
Your life is like a maze.

And what we all want
And what we all crave
Is an upbeat song
So that we can dance the night away.

Who said life was easy
Who said life was fair
Who said no one gives a damn
And no one even cared.

The way you're acting now
Like you left that all behind
You've given up
You've given in
And I'm a sucker of that kind.

Some kind of Poison Prince
With your eyes in daze
Some kind of Poison Prince
Your life is like a maze.

And what we all want
And what we all crave
Is an upbeat song
So that we can dance the night away.

Some kind of Poison Prince
With your eyes in daze
Some kind of Poison Prince
Your life is like a maze.

And what we all want
And what we all crave
Is an upbeat song
So that we can dance the night away.
