Another great song from the "Lionheart" album. It was also used as the b-side of the "Hammer Horror" single.

Lyrics:

Down in the cellar

You're getting into making poison.

You slipped some on the side,

Into my glass of wine,

And I don't want any coffee--homeground.

Offer me a chocolate,

No thank you, spoil my diet, know your game!

But tell me just how come

They smell of bitter almonds?

It's a no-no to your coffee homeground.

Pictures of Crippin

Lipstick-smeared.

Torn wallpaper.

Have the walls got ears here?

Well, you won't get me with your Belladonna--in the coffee,

And you won't get me with your aresenic--in the pot of tea,

And you won't get me in a hole to rot--with your hemlock

On the rocks.

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 aresenic--in the pot of tea,

And you won't put me in a six-foot plot--with your hemlock

On the rocks.

You won't get me with your Belladonna--in the coffee,

And you won't get me with your aresenic--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 wunderbar!"*

With your hemlock on the rocks.

"Und [inaudible]"*

This sounds like it should be in a big musical, but a dark one like Sweeny Todd.

@gadreel23 Crippin was a Victorian doctor who killed his wife by lacing her bedtime drinks with (I THINK) cyanide. Hope that helps. JH

@Symphonyofflowers Thank you for responding! ;) There are actually MANY Kate Bush Lyrics that for one reason or another (her sometimes tendency to mumble, and/or her accent -- only very rarely, I'm actually quite good with the English accent normally -- or her tendency to make up words or, in this case, some oddball reference, or some reference to English culture that is lost on Americans altogether) that I wonder about...heh.

@gadreel23 Actually, his name was Hawley Harvey Crippen. He was a murderer who was hanged in London in 1910 for murdering his wife. You can read about him on Wikipedia. And this is what Kate said about him: "He was a murderer who was arrested after he had escaped from Britain by ship, thanks to the use of ship-to-shore radio. It was the first time that radio was used in this way, so he has a small place in history for that reason."
