Lyrics for Poison

I once thought I did know all about it Since the rain falls, the wind blows and the sun shines Don't you know that your creator is a'running out of ideas? I know that I might die from poison Invisible hanging there in the sunlight And don't you know that your creator is a'running out of ideas? If I was you I'd be friendly to your neighbour Be glad that he don't want to be your enemy For don't you know that your creator is a'running out of ideas?
