๐ Lyrics
Dear John, so begins the famous old story
Goodbye, au-revoir, thanks for the memory
Keep it short and sweet if you really care
D-I-Vor-C-E can be so hurtful
It makes public property of things that are personal
All the friends and family get their share
Ink is black, as black as night
Black as thoughts that shun the light
Truth will out and maybe then
You'll put down that poison pen, that poison pen
Everyone enjoys sharing a rumour
But when it's aimed at you it loses its humour
Sometimes words so innocent cut so deep
Ink is black, as black as night
Black as thoughts that shun the light
Truth will out and maybe then
You'll put down that poison pen, that poison pen
That poison pen
Everybody's telling me, talk is cheap
Sometimes words so innocent, cut so deep
Cut so deep
They cut so deep
So deep
Ink is black (Ink is black)
As black as night, (as black as night)
Black as thoughts (black as thoughts)
That shun the light (that shun the light)
Ink is black (Ink is black)
As black as night, (as black as night)
Black as thoughts (black as thoughts)
That shun the light (that shun the light)
Truth will out and maybe then
You'll put down that poison pen, that poison pen
That poison pen
That poison pen
That poison pen
Poison pen
Black as night (ah)
As black as coal (ah)
Black as thoughts (ah)
That cast a shadow right across my soul
I thought that you were my friend
'Til you picked up that poison pen
That poison pen
Yeah
Poison
Goodbye, au-revoir, thanks for the memory
Keep it short and sweet if you really care
D-I-Vor-C-E can be so hurtful
It makes public property of things that are personal
All the friends and family get their share
Ink is black, as black as night
Black as thoughts that shun the light
Truth will out and maybe then
You'll put down that poison pen, that poison pen
Everyone enjoys sharing a rumour
But when it's aimed at you it loses its humour
Sometimes words so innocent cut so deep
Ink is black, as black as night
Black as thoughts that shun the light
Truth will out and maybe then
You'll put down that poison pen, that poison pen
That poison pen
Everybody's telling me, talk is cheap
Sometimes words so innocent, cut so deep
Cut so deep
They cut so deep
So deep
Ink is black (Ink is black)
As black as night, (as black as night)
Black as thoughts (black as thoughts)
That shun the light (that shun the light)
Ink is black (Ink is black)
As black as night, (as black as night)
Black as thoughts (black as thoughts)
That shun the light (that shun the light)
Truth will out and maybe then
You'll put down that poison pen, that poison pen
That poison pen
That poison pen
That poison pen
Poison pen
Black as night (ah)
As black as coal (ah)
Black as thoughts (ah)
That cast a shadow right across my soul
I thought that you were my friend
'Til you picked up that poison pen
That poison pen
Yeah
Poison
