[Bbm]Down in the cellar[Gb]
[Ebm]You're getting into m[F]aking poison.[F]
[Ab]You slipped some on the side, [Db] [Gb]
Into my glass of[Bbm] wine,[A]
And I don't[Gb] want any coffee--[A]homeg[F]round.[Bbm]
Offer me a chocolate, [Gb]
[Ebm] No thanks you spoil my [F]diet, know your game![Bbm]

[Bdim]Have the walls got ears here?[B] [G#] [Bb]
You won't[Ebm] get me with your belladonna--in the[Fm7] coffee,[Gb] [Db]
And you won't ge[Ebm]t me with your arsenic--in the pot of[Fm7] tea,[Gb] [Db] [Cb]
And you won't ge[Ebm]t me in a hole to rot--with[Fm7] your hemlock[Gb] [Db]
[Abm]On the r[Eb]ocks.
(Repeat verse and refrain)
Where are the plumbers
Who went a-missing here on Monday?
There was a tall man
With his companion,
And I bet you gave them coffee--homeground.
Maybe you're lonely,
And only want a little company,
But keep your recipes
For the rats to eat,
And may they rest in peace with coffee homeground.
Well, you won't get me with your Belladonna--in the coffee,
And you won't get me with your arsenic--in the pot of tea,
And you won't put me in a six-foot plot--with your hemlock
On the rocks.
(Refrain)
You won't get me with your Belladonna--in the coffee,
And you won't get me with your arsenic--in the pot of tea,
And you won't get me in a hole to rot--with your hemlock
On the rocks.
With your hemlock on the rocks.
"Noch ein Glas, mein Liebchen?"
With your hemlock on the rocks.
"Es schmeckt wunderbahr!"*
With your hemlock on the rocks.
"Und ???"
