Artist/Band: Victoria Williams
Lyrics for Song: Summer Of Drugs
Lyrics for Album: This Moment-Live In Toronto [1995]



My sister got bit by a copperhead snake


In the woods behind the house


Nobody was home so I grabbed her foot


And I sucked that poison out





My sister got better in a month or two


When the swelling it went down


But I'd started off my teenage years with a poison in my mouth





And we were too young to be hippies


Missed out on the love


Turned to a teen in the late 70's


In the summer of the drugs





Mama and daddy could never understand, their life was never dull


Their idea of a rollicking time was a kitchen tap appall


Acid grass downs and speed, junk those days were made of


How could they suspect those kids where the monsters meet their makers





Mommies and daddies were too shy to talk about those birds and bees


Integrated schools had stopped the facts of life were these


Girls and boys went away and came back, empty after the weekend


The talk on the phone consisted of hushed voices speaking





Boys and girls in every town


Sand man spread his sand around


Now we are just waking up


From a summer of drugs
