My first sip made me gag And I thought I was gonna blow beets But I took another and pretty soon, brother Sour mash started tasting sweet Made me feel brave and strong Bullet-proof like I could do no wrong But I found out before too long What I should've known You can learn to love anything Even a bird in a cage who sing a song Even if it's wrong Even if it kills you in the end You can learn to love anything Trade your heart and soul for a ball and chain Anything can bring you pleasure even pain Pick your poison, poison, pick your poison Ruby lips hit a razor tongue And a heart blue as glacier ice I was warned but I was willing to ignore Everybody's advice The more I gave, the more she took She walked away without a second look Just one more page From that great big book on life You can learn to love anything Even a bird in a cage who sing a song Even if it's wrong Even if it kills you in the end You can learn to love anything Trade your heart and soul For a ball and chain Anything can bring you pleasure even pain You can learn to love anything A prison wall, a ball and chain Anything can bring you pleasure even pain Pick your poison, poison Pick your poison, pick your poison Pick your poison, poison, poison Pick your poison Pick your poison
