By Kate Bush
From 1978's "Lionheart"
Intro: Cb A Gb Gbmaj7
Bbm Gb
Down in the cellar
Ebm F F
You're getting into making poison.
Ab Db Gb
You slipped some on the side,
Bbm A
Into my glass of wine,
Gb A F Bbm
And I don't want any coffee--homeground.
Gb
Offer me a chocolate,
Ebm F Bbm
No thanks you spoil my diet, know your game!
Ab Db
Tell me just how come
Gb Bbm A
They smell of bitter almonds?
Gb Ab F Bbm
It's a no-no to your coffee homeground.
(Refrain)
A B

Bdim B G# Bb
Have the walls got ears here?
Ebm Fm7 Gb Db
You won't get me with your belladonna--in the coffee,
Ebm Fm7 Gb Db Cb
And you won't get me with your arsenic--in the pot of tea,
Ebm Fm7 Gb Db
And you won't get me in a hole to rot--with your hemlock
Abm Eb
On the rocks.
(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 ???"
