the opium den

Singer:alphaville

may i introduce myself

i'm your poison

i'm gonna kill you tonite

i do it slowly

you gonna like it

you remember me for the rest of your life

but it won't last very long

hang on

it won't last very long

so hang on

to the opium den

i hang out here every nite

i'm just waiting

i'm just waiting for you

you gonna like what i. you gonna like it

you gonna like what i do

but it won't last very long

hang on

it won't last very long

so hang on

to the opium den. may i introduce myself

i'm your poison

i'm gonna kill you tonite

i do it slowly

you gonna like it

you remember me for the rest of your life

but it won't last very long

hang on

it won't last very long

so hang on

to the opium den. it offers you comfort

as everything about it

it is mild

without reason

and for all it is perfect

and it is there

where i go now

and it is there

where i now go

and it is there

where i now go

it is there. where i. now. go.
