G
It was long ago
D
seems like a dream
Em
the day I sucked the air
C
from a bottle of whipped cream
G
and I got real high
D Em
and things got real slow
and I started talking like this
C
whats going on? I don't know
G D
and then I sold my car
For a greatful dead ticket
Em
and my dad yelled at me
C
and he grounded me
G
and he said I was a dick It was the worst day of my life
D
and ill never forget it
Em
but the very next day
C
I was doing bong hits in the back of my friends chevete
G D
so don't tell me we're winning the war on drugs
Em C
cause drugs are like a big old can of Raid and you're all little bugs
G D
and don't tell me to not get high
Em C
cause im as low as i can get without kissing your ass and blowing you at the same time
[CHORUS]
G D
man don't tell me about love and peace
Em C G
when one of the Jones' has a hand gun pointing at me
D
dont tell me to "Just say no"
Em C
am an addict, I say no to let me go
G D
whatever happened to sex drugs and rock and roll?
Em C G
now we just have aids, crack and techno
G G C C
G
so they busted me!
I said I say, fuck them up for selling dope
Em
and i went to jail and I wasn't forgiven
C
like that little fucker who shot the pope and said
G
I have the right to remain silent
D
but they couldn't explain
Em
how i didn't exist no I wasnt violent
C
cause all i ever wanted is the right to remain
G D
and then they questioned me, yeah they asked me
why?
Em
and I said I don't think I should be shot for selling pot
C
this is my little way of saying...
G D
high, and now my record is all fucked up
and im not allowed to vote
Em
and two times a week they make me piss in a cup
C
but what i wanna do is piss down their throats
[chorus]
G D
man don't tell me about love and peace
Em C G
when one of the Jones' has a hand gun pointing at me
D
dont tell me to just say no
Em C
im an addict, I say no to let me go
G D
whatever happened to sex drugs and rock and roll?
Em C G
now we just have aids, crack and techno.
