[Verse 1]
Down in the cellar
You're getting into making poison
You slipped some on the side
Into my glass of wine
And I don't want any coffee homeground

[Verse 2]
Offer me a chocolate
No thank you, spoil my diet, know your game
Tell me just how come
They smell of bitter almonds?
It's a no-no to your coffee homeground

[Pre-Chorus]
Pictures of Crippen
Lipstick-smeared
Torn wallpaper
Have the walls got ears here?

[Chorus]
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 get me in a hole to rot (With your hemlock)
On the rocks
[Verse 3]
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

[Verse 4]
Maybe you're lonely
And only want a little company
Keep your recipes
For the rats to eat
And may they rest in peace with coffee homeground

[Pre-Chorus]
Pictures of Crippen
Lipstick-smeared
Torn wallpaper
Have the walls got ears here?

[Chorus]
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
[Outro]
With your hemlock on the rocks
"Noch ein Glas, mein Liebchen"
With your hemlock on the rocks
(La, la-la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la-la, la-la)
With your hemlock on the rocks
(La, la-la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la-la, la-la)
"Es schmeckt wunderbar"
With your hemlock on the rocks
(La, la-la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la-la, la-la)
"Es schmeckt wunderbar"
With your hemlock on the rocks
(La, la-la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la-la, la-la)
With your hemlock on the rocks
With your hemlock on the rocks
With your hemlock on the rocks
