To wander poison.
Wandering poison.
To wander poison.
Why does it wander?

Have you thought that
perhaps that poison
might just like to
have a party?

It's wandering around
looking for a party,
and I think it wants to dance.

So, if you see some poison
dancing on the hills, and
perhaps splashing itself about, beware!
Beware! because you know that it's poison.
Beware, and don't let it splash you about.

For that poison, you know,
is just wandering.
That poison, you know,
it is not everything.

And as it wanders round
it might seem to frown,
but don't go and hug it.

Because you know, you know,
that the poison might not think,
of course, then maybe,
it might give a wink.

But, do not touch that poison.
Do not touch that poison.
You won't win. You won't win. 
Not if you touch that poison.

It will only harm you.
Yes, it's true.
It will only harm you,
unless it only hits---
unless it only hits your shoe.

I think that poison
might like to go somewhere
that it will be safe from foe.
So let's bottle up that poison, yes,
and throw it in the jail.
