[Verse 1]
I got this thing and I've been taking it out on you
Taking it out on you, poor you
Like a machine that's always breaking down on you
Breaking down on you, so true

[Pre-Chorus]
I spin around, around, around
Spin around, around, around
Spin around, around, around
And then out of the blue

[Chorus]
Holding the poison down
Holding the poison down
Something to drown you out
I'm holding the poison down
You know I want what I want, I get what I get
You know what I mean? I meant what I said
Holding the poison down
Holding the poison down

[Verse 2]
I get the feeling that there ain't nothing that I can do
Nothing will get me through, so blue
Sometimes I dream, I can dream, I can dream
And then I bleed, and I bleed, and I bleed
I get the feeling that there ain't nothing that I can do

[Pre-Chorus]
I spin around, around, around
Spin around, around, around
Spin around, around, around
Out of the blue

[Chorus]
Holding the poison down
Holding the poison down
Something to drown you out
I'm holding the poison down
You know I want what I want, I gеt what I get
You know what I mean? I meant what I said
Holding thе poison down
Holding the poison down

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Chorus]
Stand around, around, around
Stand around, around, around
Stand around, around, around
Out of the blue

[Chorus]
Holding the poison down
Holding the poison down
Something to drown you out
I'm holding the poison down
You know I want what I want, I get what I get
You know what I mean? I meant what I said
Holding the poison down
Holding the poison down

Foo Fighters are an American rock band formed in 1995 by former Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl. Originally a solo project by him to overcome the grief of Kurt Cobain’s death, Grohl attracted label interest with his inaugural demo tape.

According to Dave Grohl, the band is named after the UFOs that were reported by Allied aircraft pilots in World War II.

I was reading a lot of books on UFOs. Not only is it a fascinating subject, but there’s a treasure trove of band names in those UFO books! So, since I had recorded the first record by myself, playing all the instruments, but I wanted people to think that it was a group, I figured that FOO FIGHTERS might lead people to believe that it was more than just one guy. Silly, huh?
