Lou Kelly - I'm Not High (That's Just Soap in My Eyes) Lyrics

That smell ain't weed
That's just my cologne
And I'm not talking to my dealer over the phone
Darling, that's my mistress and I'm meeting her for some tea

You found some needles and pills
You say, "start explaining"
I say, "I told you, I'm a doctor in training"
I just got no patience to treat any other patients but me

I'm not jonesing
I'm just itchy
And that's not withdrawals
I'm just a little bitchy
And I'm not high
That's just soap in my eyes

I'm not stoned
I'm just a little lazy
And I'm not strung out
My thoughts are just hazy
And I'm not high
That's just soap in my eyes

I'm not blowing smoke
I swear that's not blow
Maybe I love baking or that's dandruff from my nose
Good thing I'm a doctor
I'll diagnose it tonight

My wide pupils could be caused by a rare condition
Or just allergies
Either way, I need prescription
Too bad I ran out
I'll make a run for supplies

Mary Jane is just a lady friend
And Snow White just loves little men
And Mr. Brownstone was just my teacher back then

The only grass I know is the kind that I mow

I'm not drunk
I'm just clumsy
And I'm not baked
I'm just a little hungry
And I'm not high
That's just soap in my eyes

I'm not tripping
I'm misunderstood
I'm not wasted
I just don't speak too good
And I'm not high
That's just soap in my eyes

I'm only squinting my eyes
Cuz I love Robert De Niro
And I thought heroin is just a lady hero
And I don't know what you mean by smoking glass

That big brown rock is for my rock collection
And that crystal helps with my meditation
And those mushrooms are for my cooking class

The only grass I know is the kind that I mow

I'm not stoned
I'm just lazy
And I'm not strung out
My thoughts are just hazy
And I'm not high
That's just soap in my eyes

I'm not tripping
I'm misunderstood
I'm not wasted
I just don't speak too good
And I'm not high
That's just soap in my eyes
I said I'm not high
That's just soap in my eyes
