|
I wasn't going that far
|
The junkie slip!
|
I said I wasn't doin' it
|
The junkie slip!
|
Yea thought I'd find a rhythm in the junkie town
|
Thought I'd find a rhythm when the junkies hang around
|
|
Thought I'd go out walking to the junkie kind of beat
|
Setting on those bars that the junkies meet
|
The junkie slip!
|
Nail it down
|
The junkie slip!
|
This side of town
|
The junkie slip!
|
And whatcha knowing before you's a doin
|
The things they's a-knowing
|
You pawn your coat and your car
|
Pawned your cigar and your old guitar
|
You pawned your guitar and your saxaphone
|
You're pawning everything in your mother's home
|
|
Cos it's a junkie slip!
|
Just like rock n' roll
|
A junkie slip!
|
Like Johnnny did the stroll
|
And you know it feels alright
|
But what's that feeling on a Saturday night?
|
|
You're itching itching itching in your pillow in the day
|
You're itching itching itching and you gave your coat away
|
Itching itching itching and then in your sleeping bag
|
There's a little packet that youthought you never had
|
|
It's a junkie slip!
|
Every night
|
Junkie slip!
|
Cold water fright
|
It's a junkie slip
|
And an old spoon cooky cooky cooky kooky afternoon
|
All afternoon and in the middle of the night
|
|
You're worse for the difference and it don't sleep tight
|
Don't pull the curtains fon't put on the light
|
C-c-c-cos it's a junkie slip!
|
What's goin' on?
|
Was early night
|
I lit the fire
|
Finish alright
|
Yeh Edi-Edi-Edi-Yeh Edi-Juan
|
Him going to live with indian
|
Come in the car, it's an old machine
|
Riding from Brookway on a magazine
|
Be on that corner with a magazine
|
|
Do ya do ya do ya follow your friends?
|
Do I hear you saying that you're going back again?
|
It's a junkie slip!
|
Where? Did it end?
|
But did it ah did it did it ever end?
|
When did it ever end?
|
Don't ask me when on a Wednesday night
|
Don't ask me when on a Thrusday night
|
I said oh? Who the hell are you?
|
You said oh! Well you met me
|
I said I can guess why
|
