She comes
on like a rose
But everybody
knows, don't ya know, don't ya know..
She'll get
you in touch
You can
look but you'd better not touch...
Poison Ivy,
Poison Ivy...
Late at
night when you're sleeping,
Poison Ivy
comes a creeping around..
She's pretty
as a daisy (pretty as a daisy)
But look
out man she's crazy (yeah, yeah, yeah)
She'll really
reel you in (really reel you in)
If you let
her get under your skin (let her get under your skin)
*chorus*
Measles
makes you mumpy,
And mumps
will make you lumpy,
And chicken
pox will make you jump and twitch.
A common
cold will fool ya,
And whooping
coughs will cool ya,
But poison
ivy loves to make you itch.
You're gonna
need an ocean (gonna need an ocean)
Of calamine
lotion (oh, you're gonna need it)
You'll be
scratching like a hound (boy, you'll be itching)
The minute
you start to mess around...
*chorus*
La la la
la..
