Occupational Hazard

I'm an occupational hazard
I must warn you before we begin
My milk could take root in the treetops
At the right point from under your skin

Don't let me dampen your mood
Don't let me cramp up your style
Don't let me trample your dreams
My milk of kindness is slim
My shining light has grown dim
My envy's evergreen

I'm an occupational hazard
Got you begging for your dearest life
I survive all the disasters
Whilst everyone around me dies

Don't let me cramp up your style
Don't let me dampen your mood
Don't let me trample your dreams
My milk of kindness is slim
My shining light has grown dim
My envy's evergreen

You see the danger in yourself
You don't know where the evil came from
You feel the danger is yourself
And you can't see where it begins or when it ends

I'm an occupational hazard
I'll be the mildew on your soul
You'll watch it darken the corners
And it's there until you're helpless and old

Don't let me cramp up your style
Don't let me dampen your mood
Don't let me trample your dreams
My milk of kindness is slim
My shining light has grown dim
My envy's evergreen

You see the danger in yourself
You don't know where the evil came from
You feel the danger is yourself
And you can't see where it begins or where it ends

You'll never know how much I need you
You'll never know how much I care
You'll never know how much I need you
You'll never know how much I care
You'll never know how much I need you
(I'm an occupational hazard)
You'll never know how much I care
You'll never know how much I need you
(I'm an occupational hazard)
You'll never know how much I care
