Is an upbeat song,
E

(Same chords repeated throughout)
Who said life was easy,
Who said life was fair,
Who said no one gives a dam,
And no one even cared.
The way you’re acting now,
Like you left that all behind.
You’ve given up,
You’ve given in,
And I’m a sucker of that kind.
Some kind of Poison Prince,
With your eyes in daze.
Some kind of Poison Prince,
Your life is like a maze.
And what we all want and what we all crave,
Is an upbeat song ,
So that we can dance the night away.
Some kind of Poison Prince,
With your eyes in daze.
Some kind of Poison Prince,
Your life is like a maze.
And what we all want and what we all crave,
Is an upbeat song ,
So that we can dance the night away.
