Stupid, Stoned & Dumb

Poison · Hollyweird [2002]

My baby said she don't want to see my face

She kicked me right on out of her place

Now I'm back with the band and my girl is long gone

She broke my heart bad so I wrote down this song



I'm about as sad as they come

yeah, I'm stupid, stoned and dumb

I'm a pretty pitiful sight

Lately I can't get myself right



Boys, I can't get this girl out of my head

I just know she's got another man in her bed

They said, "Bret, let us give you some advice --

In Hollywood, love don't come easy, it comes at a price"



Chorus

So your girlfriend is a dancer and she makes love for money

Used to get it free we really think you're lucky

Loves a two way street you got hit by the bus

Don't break your heart or you'll end up like us



So you got dumped

Don't feel ashamed

We got a little something

something gonna ease your pain

So I toke and I snort and I smoke and I sniff

By the way, what day is this?



Chorus (x2)



You're a natural born loser don't you understand

That's why you're born to sing in a rock and roll band

Born to feel the pain and write sad songs

With losers like us this is where you belong



Chorus

Solo



The band was making it big, I was making the scene

Drive big cars and making some green

Wrote a big hit; a number one song

But by then my girl was long gone



Chorus x 3
