Verse Riff
She comes on like a rose
but everybody knows
she'll get you in Dutch
you can look but you'd better not touch
Chorus Riff
Poison Ivy Poison Ivy
Late at night while you're sleeping
Poison Ivy comes creeping around
Verse Riff
She's pretty as a daisy
but look out man she's crazy
she'll really do you in
if you let her get under your skin
Bridge Riff
Measles make you mumpy
and mumps will make you lumpy
and chicken pox will make you
jump and switch
A common cold will fool you
and whooping cough can cool ya
But Poison Ivy lord will make you itch
Verse Riff
Your gonna need an ocean
of calamine lotion
You'll be scratching like a hound
the minute you start to mess around
Chorus Riff
Poison Ivy Poison Ivy
Late at night while you're sleeping
Poison Ivy comes creeping around
Bridge Riff
Measles make you mumpy
and mumps will make you lumpy
and chicken pox will make you
jump and switch
A common cold will fool you
and whooping cough can cool ya
But Poison Ivy lord will make you itch
Verse Riff
Your gonna need an ocean
of calamine lotion
You'll be scratching like a hound
the minute you start to mess around
Chorus Riff
Poison Ivy Poison Ivy
Late at night while you're sleeping
Poison Ivy comes creeping around
