When everything you've ever believed in
now looks mismtatched and wrong.
I've been waiting for that missing puzzle piece
for far too long.
I have no other reasonable option
than to be sing a done wrong song.
A song about a two time loser
who one day gets it right Doctor, your energy pills
to cure my ills
only make my legs weak.
The green ones to help me lose some weight
brother, they just makes me tweak..
Not unlike Hank Williams
who fell out of a Cadillac Coupe Devill.
I always go back to alcohol,
weed heroine, Mescaline and pills.
It's a tragic game.
You think I might've been happy
with the glory and the fame.
But, fame doesn't take away the pain.
it just pays the bills.
I just wind up on alcohol,, meth, and a brief cocaine thrill..
and I wind down
hash ether, Secanol and cold pills
And we all wind up on alcohol , methedrine, speedballs,
and aspirin for
we sweat and,, swell, and chill..
and you wind up on shrooms cocaine and pills..
Janis Joplin
she was wild and reckless.
Then, there was Gram Parson's Lord
then there was Jimmy Hendrix.
The story just goes on and on
and I guess, it always will.
They ended up on alcohol, and pills,
Sometimes,somebody
just doesn't wake up
the next day.
Sometimes, it's a heart attack.
Sometimes, they don't say.
They pulled old Hank Williams
outta a Cadillac Coup De Ville.
He ended up on potions, lotions,,, ether, heroine, and diet pills.
And, we wind up on Alcohol dope, and brief, ecstatic cocaine thrills.
Elvis Pressley
He came up from Jackson.
With brand new way of singin' lord
and a brand new way ah dancin'
and even from the waist up
he gave this old world a
rockin' thrill.
He wound up on alcohol and pills. uh huh.
that's right.
and you wind up on alcohol heroine, coke shrooms, and or diet pills
and they wind up on alcohol and pills..
A collaboration, magnum opus product
This is how I'd expand it if I was granted with the license to do so.
This is worthy topic to sing about. I would say it's a judgement call, A personal thing, when you discuss mind altering chemicals, but only with certain enlightened, generally older crowds would I toss into the stream of musical consciousness here to include drugs such as quaaludes, or psychodelics.
