lyrics

Junkie Heaven

i lost some dope that i can’t retrieve
i need to get high like you can’t believe
but i lost it somewhere way uptown
and now my jones is coming down

what i lost woulda gotten me through the night
i’d've been feeling good alright
but in my head i got a demon growling
and on my back that ol’ monkey is howling

getting the shivers and the cold cold sweat
and that ain’t half as bad as it’s gonna get
i'm telling you brother this thing ain’t funny
i'm gonna have to go out and get me some money

see the lady on the corner holding that purse
i’m gonna go grab it people i’ve done worse
i snatch it from her hand and run like hell
fifty dollars inside i say well well well

my brain feels like it’s starting to bleed
got to turn this money into what i need
i go see my man, he’s just across town
please be home, man, don’t let me down

happy day happy day i was able to score
i go back to my room, sit down on the floor
i cook it up quick, get it into my vein
gonna ride that horse, i’m holding the rein

but wait, there’s something wrong with the stuff he sold me
and then i remember what another junkie had told me
some real bad stuff, he said, going around
won’t get you high, but put you into the ground

i stumble outta my room crossa the street to the park
my vision is going everything’s getting dark
can’t hardly move my joints are locked
can’t hardly breathe my windpipe is blocked

so there it is, i’m gonna die right here
but ain’t it strange, people i feel no fear
cause the place i’m going after i die?
i’m goin’ to junkie heaven where i’m gonna stay high
