The Most Drug Inflicted Lyrics?

[velvetkevorkian]

sabbath seem to be featuring pretty heavily, so how about "fairies wear boots"?
most of the songs from "mechanical animals" by marilyn manson (e.g "i don't like the drugs but the drugs like me", "the dope show", etc...)

and (how could i forget?) most of ministry's output since 1988 (e.g "just one fix", "dark side of the spoon")

in a related note, i remember a few years ago a kerrang! writer suggested that the day dave mustaine gave up smack was the day megadeth stopped making good records. he got a good b*ll*cking for that, iirc...

The Cure - Icing Sugar

You're delicious
Dreaming
Slack jawed
Green eyed
Rub my nose in
Icing sugar
Smooth as
When this cold and deadly
Blade
Kissed the fruit
So soft
And gently breathing
Under your skin

Oh I'll empty you
I'll empty you
As empty as a boy can be
As empty
As a boy can be


The Cure - Like Cockatoos

She walked out of her house
And looked around
At all the gardens that looked
Back at her house
(Like all the faces
That quiz when you smile...)

And he was standing
At the corner
Where the road turned dark
A part of shiny wet
Like blood the rain fell
Black down on the street

And kissed his feet she fell
Her head an inch away from heaven
And her face pressed tight
And all around the night sang out
Like cockatoos

"There are a thousand things" he said
"I'll never say those things to you again"
And turning on his heel
He left a trace of bubbles
Bleeding in his stead

And in her head
A picture of a boy who left her
Lonely in the rain
(And all around the night sang out
like cockatoos)

Gang Of Four - Glass

Look through the window (and what do you see?)
Look through the window (and what do you see?)
Look through the window (and what do you see?)
I'm looking through a pain of glass
I'm so restless (I'm as bored as a cat)
I'm so restless (I'm as bored as a cat)
I'm so restless (I'm as bored as a cat)
We'll talk about this and we talk about that
Light myself (a cigarette)
Light myself (a cigarette)
Light myself (a cigarette)
Nicotine really goes to my head
If your feeling all in take some aspirin
If you feel in a mess put your head on a head rest
Your back on a back rest your arm on a arm rest
Your leg on a leg rest your bed on a bed rest
Your foot on a foot rest if you're feeling all in take some aspirin
or some paracetamol
Always thought life should be so easy
It seems that I have misunderstood
Nothing I do can seem to please me
What I say don't sound so good


Nicotine, aspirin and paracetamol in one song! Thats pretty druggy...

[jonas_oxide]

this one is called mascara


There's a powdered sun dripping through a porthole
In a set design
Can you read your name
It's been so long since we bloomed from the inside
So where have you been since you fell off the flat edge
Of a world under nothing sky
You've been lying rye
They claim men you dance under the moonlight
Do what you think is the sum
Buts it a flesh and blood of a
Dismembered gone assembly
In four thousands of your years

Voice 1: you felt like history in your thighs
Voice 2: you get four red candles

Voice 2: on the table with your penis i arise
Voice 1: you're the one that makes me realize

Voice 1: with water flowing through to tomorrow
Voice 2: glued to your addiction
Voice 1: apples and cake must have been your mistake
Voice 2: but the smile you send in my direction

Voice 1: makes me feel like i'm alive

Voice 1: you're hidden by your wooden legs
Voice 2: you're my kind, you're my kind

Voice 2: you always make me feel like a moon in my life

Voice 1: staring down at the world's head, all the time

Voice 2: it always makes me feel good to know you're alive, wrapping your
Ties

Voice 1: down by the whirlpool, i finally realized you must have built
In your snake, your little dark house

Voice 1: i've been insane well the time is slow

Voice 2: i've been to a society whith you can't see yourself and you can't
Feel sunshine

Voice 2: and if you see me roaming the hillside won't you come along? it's
A hard road to the top of yourself. you'll always be alone.

Voice 1: the pope don't matter when the pawn is your sea, don't you agree?

Voice 2: i like you in my love, feels good just to know i can love
Someone like you. they'll make it hard for you choose. i can understand but
When you see creation coming you close your eyes. and to you i'm sure it's no
Surprise that i could be one of the dead. thank god my underwear's full of
Lead without you. without you.

Voice 1: when you're around i'm wound around your thumb. you wanna be numb
Inside the gun. all your different lights are one big fight against the
Baby inside that you've mistaken for pain.

White Rabbit- Jefferson Airplane. Weirdest song I know.

One pill makes you larger
And one pill makes you small,
And the ones that mother gives you
Don't do anything at all.
Go ask Alice
When she's ten feet tall.
And if you go chasing rabbits
And you know you're going to fall,
Tell 'em a hookah smoking caterpillar
Has given you the call.
Call Alice
When she was just small.
When the men on the chessboard
Get up and tell you where to go
And you've just had some kind of mushroom
And your mind is moving low.
Go ask Alice
I think she'll know.
When logic and proportion
Have fallen sloppy dead,
And the White Knight is talking backwards
And the Red Queen's "off with her head!"
Remember what the dormouse said:
"Feed your head. Feed your head. Feed your head"

[geshel]

Actually, that song is pretty straightforward to me.

[MikeyFingers]

Come Together by The Beatles. This is just sheer nonsense.
Great song though.

"Here come old flattop he come grooving up slowly
He got joo-joo eyeball he one holy roller
He got hair down to his knee
Got to be a joker he just do what he please

He wear no shoeshine he got toe-jam football
He got monkey finger he shoot coca-cola
He say "I know you, you know me"
One thing I can tell you is you got to be free
Come together right now over me

He bag production he got walrus gumboot
He got Ono sideboard he one spinal cracker
He got feet down below his knee
Hold you in his armchair you can feel his disease
Come together right now over me

He roller-coaster he got early warning
He got muddy water he one mojo filter
He say "One and one and one is three"
Got to be good-looking 'cause he's so hard to see
Come together right now over me"

This next song doesn't have "drug induced lyrics", but it's about an acid trip and quite hilarious when you listen to Claypool sing it. Good fretless line groove too.

Primus--Over the Electric Grapevine

"They headed southward from san francisco,
To be with chuckles and the others.
With electric in the air and peroxide in their hair,
They looked like golden brothers.
They drove a datsun, an automatic,
The radio blaring static,
He made a face into the light and started laughing at the sight.
The hysteria ensuing would dominate the night.
From all the candy, the seats were sticky,
As they were drawn into the grapevine.
Then introduce yourself came on as they barreled through the gog.
The demon puffing madly on a mentholated log.
They were tired, they were sleepy,
So they parked behind the roxy.
Adam left to use the phone, so he sat there all alone,
When adam’s voice come beaming through on the radio,
He started laughing-haha haaa ha- haha haaaaa ha...."
