Well I wake up in the morning
|
Look at my clock
|
It's way past noon time
|
Now I'm late for work.
|
|
Tell me, tell me
|
What have I done wrong?
|
Ain't nothing go right with me
|
Must be I've been smoking too long.
|
|
Well I go to find me some breakfast
|
But I ain't got no food
|
Take me a shower
|
But the water don't feel no good.
|
|
Tell me...
|
|
I've got opium in my chimney
|
No other life to choose
|
Nightmare made of hash dreams.
|
Got the devil in my shoes
|
|
Tell me...
|
|
Well when I'm smoking
|
Put my worries on a shelf
|
Don't think about nothin'
|
Try not to see myself.
|
|
Tell me...
|
|
Well in this blues I'm singin'
|
There's a lesson to be learned
|
Don't go around smokin'
|
Unless you want to get burned.
|
|
Tell me...
|
