She comes on like a rose but everybody knows She'll get you in Dutch Now you can look but you better not touch [Chorus:] Poison ivy, poison ivy Late at night while you're sleepin' poison ivy comes a'creepin' Around She's pretty as a daisy but look out man she's crazy She'll really do you in Now if you let her under your skin [Chorus] 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'll 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 [Chorus] 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'll 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 [Chorus] La da la da la da [Repeat x 4]
