Slow Down Georgie (She's Poison) Songtext
von Elton John

Hey there, Georgie, got a couple of things to say
One, you′re my friend, and two, it's hurting me
Seeing you act this way
But my hands are tied and I can only try
To talk you out of a fall
′Cause the reputation of the woman you're dating's
′Bout as nasty as the Berlin wall

Slow down, Georgie, she′s poison
Oh, man, you've got to watch yourself
She′s gonna get in your head, she's gonna crawl in your bed
You′re just a stepping stone to someone else
Slow down, Georgie, she's poison
She′s just another divorcee
An undercover lover of a hundred other
Little fish in the sea
Oh, oh, oh, oh


You better cut her loose before she gets her hooks in you
If you gave her the world and it was covered in pearls
She'd only ask for the moon
She's got you hypnotised with her big brown eyes
And a body that could stop a clock
But if you think your face ain′t gonna be replaced
Georgie boy, you′re in for a shock

Slow down, Georgie, she's poison
Oh, man, you′ve got to watch yourself
She's gonna get in your head, she′s gonna crawl in your bed
You're just a stepping stone to someone else
Slow down, Georgie, she′s poison
She's just another divorcee
An undercover lover of a hundred other
Little fish in the sea
Oh, oh, oh, oh

Well, it ain't my job to rain on your parade
But if the chips were down you′d do the same for me
It′s always been that way
She's got you paralyzed with a pack of lies
About honour and the single girl
And if you buy that line, you must be out of your mind
You must be living in another world


Slow down, Georgie, she′s poison
Oh, man, you've got to watch yourself
She′s gonna get in your head, she's gonna crawl in your bed
You′re just a stepping stone to someone else
Slow down, Georgie, she's poison
She's just another divorcee
An undercover lover of a hundred other
Little fish in the sea
Oh, oh, oh, oh
