Blackie & Rodeo Kings - Stoned Lyrics

(Wilson/Fearing)

Last night out in the dark
I was watching werewolves in the park
Stoned, uh huh
I used to run with the pack
‘Til they broke my balls and cracked my jack
Stoned, uh huh
Just like the words from an old love letter
The scars I wear aren’t that much better
Stoned, uh huh
Easy’s how it use to feel like grease around the driving wheel
Stoned, uh huh

Chorus
These are the days worth living
Let them all bleed down
Everything’s forgiven
Uh huh
Uh huh

I used to love how the headlights shone
From the girls in cars on the lonely ones
Stoned, uh huh
We’d walk all night in the rain
We’d barely make it home again

I’m a genius, I can’t get straight
There’s supernatural in my hair
Space invaders all around me
Freak me out when I get down there

I’m getting lost before I get found out
I’m getting old before my time
And it’s too late

Chorus
So shut up I’ll give up when I want to
Just shut up I’m not listening to you
Say anything ‘cause it don’t mean nothing
I’ve had enough of you today
I’ve had enough of you today

Now don’t try me, I’m so turned on
I’m in the game to break some eggs
I’m not a loser I’m a time bomb
A superstar that always gets his way

Chorus
Stoned, uh huh

Chorus

And it all bleeds down
Tattooed arms and old graffiti dream girls that fade and leave me
Stoned, uh huh
I carved my name in those old places old times and older faces
Stoned, uh huh
