Poppy

My baby he don't act like himself no more

He lost that smile I use to adore

He spend his nights slapping his veins

He lost that glow he used to have on his face

Empty, burned bottle on the carpet

My baby lying beside it

Tin foil and melted sugar everywhere

He said his provider was his pharmacist friend Ben

I swear I'm gonna kill him because

I swear I'm gonna kill him because because because

The poppy took my baby away from me

The poppy took my baby away from me

The poppy took my baby away from me

The poppy took my baby away from me

My baby used to repeat the news

And now he talks about dragons on the wall

Used to love German expressionism films

Now he drinks until he falls

I was confused, didn't know what to do

So I called his momma, had her come on over

She got him off the ground, started slapping him around

And now she cried, she said she said she said

The poppy took my baby away from me

The poppy took my baby away from me

The poppy took my baby away from me

The poppy took my baby away from me

The poppy took my baby away from me

The poppy took my baby away from me
