After dark you blossom out
You flower in the night
You smell of roses
But sometimes you taste bitter almost
Like deadly nightshade
In a while she'll take over
Your whole life if you let her
She can intoxicate but
Minds of men who should know better
Like deadly nightshade
Like deadly nightshade
Like deadly nightshade
Like deadly nightshade
Can't you see?
The whole world's crumbling under me
Stars are your companions and
The darkness is your friend
It protects you from the gaze of
Any would-be hired a**a**in
Of deadly nightshade
After dark you blossom out
You flower in the night
You smell of roses
But sometimes you taste bitter almost
Like deadly nightshade
My bella-donna
Like deadly nightshade
My bella-donna
Can't you see?
The whole world's crumbling under me
Can't you see?
The whole world's crumbling under me
