Lyrics

Driving around smoking pot with Dana and Mark Olympic Auditorium Era, it was kind of a bummer But somewhere between the 110 and Macarthur Park I found a place where I could spend the rest of the summer Killing time at the donut shop Waiting for the cops to leave so we can go cop Sometimes it's pretty good but sometimes it can hurt To get a bag of Nestle's quick or a handful of dirt Get a new outfit, go downtown Whistle me over to get a couple balloons Crimson swirling amidst the brown I think I need a bigger spoon Once again at last, I'm getting down But I'm getting burned out from the daily grind How much longеr can I stick around A good vein is getting hard to find For the nеxt couple months and on into the fall I thought I could stop if I drank a lot of beer I found out way too late that it had me by the balls And that things would stay that way for a number of years Headed up to Union and Sixth Sometimes I get busted for possession or tracks No matter what I've got to get a fix My life is dusted but I keep coming back Spending lots of time on the county farm I lead a life of doom Sitting on the shitter with a needle in my arm And finding paradise lost in a gas station bathroom Get a new outfit, go downtown Whistle me over to get a couple balloons Crimson swirling amid the brown I've got to get a bigger spoon Once again at last, I'm getting down But I'm getting burned out from this daily grind How much longer do I have to stick around A good vein is getting really hard to find
