 8939>girl:  yeah... whoooo...shit
 hmmm, whoaaa, hmm ...
 Guess what?
 I ain't coming in yet, i'll come in in a minute
 Aiyo, this is my love song. It goes like this....
 
 Back when Mark Wallburg was marky mark
 This is how we used to make the party start
 We used to...mix hen with bacardi dark
 and when it... kicks in you can hardly talk
 and by the... sixth gin you gon probly crawl
 and you'll be... sick then and you'll probly barf
 and my pre-...diction is that you gon probably fall
 either somewhere in the lobby or the hallway wall
 and every-... things spinnin your beginning to
 think women are swimmin in
 pink linen again in the sink
 then in a couple of minutes that bottle of guinness is finished
 you are now allowed to officially slap bitches
 you have the right to remain violent and start wildin
 start a fight with the same guy that was smart eye'n ya
 get in the car and start it and start drivin
 over the island and cause a 42 car pile up
 Earth calling, pilot to co-pilot, looking for life on this
 planet sir, no sign of it
 All i could see is a bunch of smoke flyin and
 I'm so high that I might die if i go by it.
 Let me out of this place I'm outta place,
 I'm in in outter space, I've just
 vanished without a trace.
 I'm going to a pretty place now where the flowers grow,
 I'll be back in an hour or so.
 
 Cuz every time I go to try to leave (whoa-o-o)
 someone keeps pullin on my sleeve (whoa-o-o)
 I dont wanna but I gotta stay (whoa-o-o)
 these drugs really gotta hold on me (whoa-o-o)
 Cuz everytime I try ta tell 'em no (no-o-o)
 they won't let me ever let 'em go (go-o-o)
 I'm a sucker all I gotta say (whoa-o-o)
 these drug's really gotta hold on me (whoa-o-o)
 
 In third grade all I used to do, was sniff glue through a
 tube and play rubixcube
 Seventeen years later I'm as rude as jude
 Schemein on the first chick with the hugest boobs
 I got no game, and every face looks the same
 they got no name, so i don't need game to play
 I just say whatever I want, to whoever I want,
 whenever i want, wherever I want, however I want
 However I do show some respect to few
 This ecstacy has got me standin next to you
 Gettin sentimental as fuck, spillin guts to you
 We just met, but I think I'm in love with you
 But your on it too, so you tell me you love me too,
 Wake up in the morning like "What the fuck we do?"
 I gotta go bitch, you know I got stuff to do, Cuz if
 I get caught cheatin then I'm stuck with you
 But in the long run these drugs are probably gonna
 catch up sooner or later
 But fuck it I'm on one, so let's enjoy,
 let the ex destroy your spinal chord,
 so it's not a straight line no more
 So we walk around lookin like some wind-up dolls,
 Shit stickin out of ourbacks like a dinosaur,
 Shit, six hit's won't even get me high no more,
 so bye for now, I'm gonna try
 to find some more
 
 Chorus
 
 That's the sound of a bottle when it's hollow
 when you swallow it all wallow and drown in your sorrow
 And tomorrow your probably gonna wanna do it again
 What's a little spinal fluid between you and a friend, screw it
 and whats a little bit of alcohol poisoning? and whats a little fight,
 tomorrow you'll be boys again
 It's your life, live it however you wanna
 Marajuana is everywhere, where was you brought up?
 It don't matter as long as you get where you're goin
 Cuz none of this shit's gonna mean shit where we're goin
 They tell you to stop but you just sit there ignorin,
 even though you wake upfeelin like shit every mornin.
 But you're young, you got a lot of drugs to do,
 girls to screw, parties tocrash, sucks to be you
 If I could take it all back now I wouldn't,
 I woulda did more shit thatpeople said that I shouldnt
 But I'm all grown up now,
 and upgraded and graduated to better drugs and
 updated
 But I still gotta a lot of growin up to do,
 I still gotta whole lot ofthrowin up to spew
 But when it's all said and done
 i'll be forty before i know it wit a 40 on
 the porch tellin stories
 with a bottle of Jack, two grandkids on my lap,
 babysitting for Hailie, while
 Hailie's out gettin smashed.
 
 Chorus x 2
 drugs really gotta hold on me
 really got a hold on me
 drugs really gotta hold on me
 they really got a hold on me
