Poisonous Love Lyrics – Kristin Chenoweth and Jemaine Clement

Poisonous Love Text

---

My darling, while you sleep
All is well, we are friends and that's swell
But the truth is that I have a secret to tell
I love you
People say it's wrong, it's absurd
That a frog and a bird
Are in love, but I know in my heart
This was so meant to be
'Cause I love you so much
Too bad we can't touch
If we did you would die
And that would be such
A really big drag
If only we could could hug and could kiss
Be in heavenly bliss
But your lungs would explode
And you'd look just like this
As you'd hemorrhage and gag
Oh excuse me
Romeo, juliet
Were in love but I bet
It was nothing compared
To the feeling I get
Around you
You don't even know that I'm there
You don't see that I care
Could it be that for me
You're not even aware?
That I'm perfect for you?
'Cause I'm never-ever mean, never lie
And I'm sweeter than pie
And I'm thoughtful and gentle
And timid and shy
And tender and loving
And true
But darling, protect you I will
Don't worry, just chill
'Cause there isn't a bird that I wouldn't kill
For you
Can't you see
Oh, we were destined to be?
For we have love
Poisonous love
I know
Yes, I know
That you can't hold me (feel me close now)
Your loving wings enfold me
Fate told me
Love
Poisonous love
Standing here
You're so near and yet so far (like a star)
Here we are
What to do (to do)
Oh, poo
You're my romeo, I'm juliet
We are so perfect and yet
If we touch, not by much
Still, on all you can bet
It's good-bye
And I'll cry
As you die
From our poisonous love
