The Coke Heads
The coke heads in the back room are drinking cheap red wine
Narcotics and alcoholics are here to pass the time
There bull stories sounding like a movie caught in time
Some have all the problems, but some just have the time
The feeling never leaves you as you do another line
This stuffs half expensive as you do line to line to line
The wallpaper is ugly, and the place just smells like grime
The girls and boys are laughing like it’s going to be some crime
When they were born, the expectations were high up on the list
There parents thought the private schools would give you just the kick
But now your just another part of this awful mess
To get up in the morning is causing much distress
Your teeth are loose your all just skin and bone
Your rather fly than feed yourself now you all alone.
Pull the plug on everything and flush me down the loo
I can take another pill or do another line
