Poison (the song)

Post Reply New Topic

Anyone who's heard the song Poison by Alice Cooper think it could describe an aspie/autie's point of view in a relationship? Or an NT w/ someone w/ some form of autism? No idea here

"You lips are venomous poison, Poison to my very veins, your poison... My pain, your thrill...I want... but I better not touch..." you get it. Asking cause it sounds like me!

I can't answer that because I have never concentrated that much on the words... I am too busy rocking!

Well, I suppose any song lyrics can be interpreted to mean what you want them to. Personally, I think he's just talking about a woman who is bad news. He's attracted to her physically, but she hurts people, or hurt him at least, and so he's saying, "Hey, I'd better play it safe and stay away."

Or maybe he's saying, "I've got to write another song for this album. Hmmm, let's see? What does my audience want and expect? Spiders! Yeah, that's it's. I'm Alice Cooper, after all. Gotta have spiders. Poisonous spiders, of course. And um, let's see, sex. Sex and poisonous spiders. Hmmm, spider webs...black lace stockings....there we go! Some nice sexy, spidery imagery. That ought to do. Now I've got something to work with."

But hey, if the aspie thing works for you, then great. Alice Cooper is pretty cool. I would guess that he'd be pleased for his song to speak to you in any kind of way.

Then of course, there's always "Billion Dollar Babies."
