They come on to death rows, in reverie buggy throws,
They stick these guys like Dutch,
Now when they hook up and fetter them such.

Poison I-V e-e-e-e, poison I-V e-e-e-e,
Late, you're quite after seepin', poison I-V comes grim reapin',
You're dow-ow-ow-ow-ow-own.

In privy you go dazy, almost like purple hazy,
So chilly do you in,
They lift the lever, gets under your skin.

Poison I-V e-e-e-e, poison I-V e-e-e-e,
State has plight for your keepin', poison I-V date is creepin',
Arou-ou-ou-ou-ou-ound.

Pleas'll become frumpy,
Rope dumps'll make you clumpy,
The 'lectric box will make you jump and twitch.
They're comin' for ta cool ya,
Kalashnikov'll rule ya,
But poison I-V lord'll break your hitch!

Your lawyer pleads a motion, for mal-aligned notion,
Soon be latchin' tightly bound,
One minute past twelve they'll put you down.

Poison I-V e-e-e-e, poison I-V e-e-e-e,
Fate takes flight while you're weepin', poison I-V soon be sleepin'
In grou-ou-ou-ou-ou-ound.

Fees for legal grumping,
For chumps of lethal pumping,
Electric shocks will make you dump and pitch.
The lawman scold and rule ya,
The trooper cops'll school ya,
Poison I-V poured'll bake your switch!

The hangman reads the motion, for cu-ra-rine potion.
They will scratch you with one round,
One minute your heart will stress and pound.

Poison I-V e-e-e-e, poison I-V e-e-e-e,
Late at night you ain't sleepin', poison I-V gonna cheapin',
You dow-ow-ow-ow-ow-own.
