Poison Ivy Songtext
von The Dave Clark Five

She comes on like a rose but everybody knows
She′ll get you in Dutch
You can look but you better not touch

Poison iv-y-y-y-y, poison iv-y-y-y-y
Late at night while you're sleepin′ poison ivy comes
A'creepin'
Arou-ou-ou-ou-ou-ound

She′s pretty as a daisy but look out man she′s crazy
She'll really do you in
If you let her under your skin

Poison iv-y-y-y-y, poison iv-y-y-y-y
Late at night while you′re sleepin' poison ivy comes
A′creepin'
Arou-ou-ou-ou-ou-ound


Measles make you bumpy
And mumps′ll make you lumpy
And chicken pox'll make you jump and twitch
A common cold'll fool ya
And whooping cough can cool ya
But poison ivy, Lord′ll make you itch!

You′re gonna need an ocean of calamine lotion
You'll be scratchin′ like a hound
The minute you start to mess around

Poison iv-y-y-y-y, poison iv-y-y-y-y
Late at night while you're sleepin′ poison ivy comes
A'creepin′
Arou-ou-ou-ou-ou-ound

Measles make you bumpy
And mumps'll make you lumpy
And chicken pox'll make you jump and twitch
A common cold′ll fool ya
And whooping cough can cool ya
But poison ivy, Lord′ll make you itch!

You're gonna need an ocean of calamine lotion
You′ll be scratchin' like a hound
The minute you start to mess around


Poison iv-y-y-y-y, poison iv-y-y-y-y
Late at night while you′re sleepin' poison ivy comes
A′creepin'
Arou-ou-ou-ou-ou-ound
