The Acid Song
I had not taken acid for twelve years
But one night last summer I did
I was adrift in a bar room
Acting like a jerk and a kid
I knew we were asking for trouble
Trouble was what we would get
Five of us dropped in the girl's room
Sacadilicised insane quintet
Well that bathroom got crowded in no time
Our minds were all blown in one flash
Everyone in there got ugly
We exited out of there fast
Back in the bar we were happy(No problem, feeling
great)
Back in the bar we were fine
Till Johnny turned into a Nazi
And Mary threw up all her wine
Well in no time we all were ejected
Soon we were out on the street
The sidewalk began to perspire
We had glass and dog shit at our feet
We went over to Mary's apartment
c'mon
To listen to the Grateful Dead
On the way there we lost Johnny
He had opted for Bellevue instead
Well I'm really glad we did this, it feels great. Just
like the old days, I love this.
I know my hair's on fire, it's like incense or
something
You know, your face is melting
It is, it's all the colours of the rainbow
Hey you wanna hold some fruit?
C'mon hold some fruit
It breeds, it really does
Have a cantaloupe, c'mon
Ah, no I dunno where the Donovan tape is
Well I had to get out of that city
Bobby was bringing me down
Me and my darling young Susie
Said so long and drove out of town
Driving on acid is easy
Driving on acid's a breeze
Just keep the car on the highway
Don't laugh and don't fart and don't sneeze
Oh we got to my house in the country
In the country man
The trees were all throbbing and green
Susie was sure she had cancer
I was sure I was James Dean
We went down the lake to go swimming
C!mon letÕs try it out
Down to the lake for a swim
Susie said water cures cancer
I asked her to please call me Jim
Yes acid is usually dangerous
The mild-mannered can quickly turn mean
Lsd can surely derange us
Unless you possess Thorazine
So next time you wanna go out there
When you feel like feeding your head
Think twice before dropping acid
Hold out for mushrooms instead!
