Crack Pipes Lyrics

[random sample]

 All the peeps said I wouldn't laugh

 Don't make me laugh, don't make me laugh

 

 [Sage Francis]

 I'd give a twenty one gunshot salute

 With a toy rifle you bought me but it won't shoot

 And all is well because there's been one too many shots

 The sterile robots want to talk to me about Detox

 Stop the presses, there's been an update

 Delivered via 1:30 AM phone call

 When an only half-informative sauce talks discretely

 Meet me-- at the family room at the side of the Intensive Care Unit

 Immediately, I'll carry a tune

 The sirens so loud, can't hear my music

 Keep free-- of negative thoughts, everything'll be fine

 We all assume... That it would go back to the way things were

 That it would go back to normal soon

 Saw the moon in a way that I never seen it before

 When I looked up that night into the sky wondering why

 Lookin' for answers, guess I ain't ask right

 I'm guessin most of yall out there know exactly what that's like

 What that's like, now tell me what's that like?

 

 It's like a whirlwind of emotions occurs when moms and dads fight

 It's like when a girl grins, an emotion of hers

 That holds your arm, and grabs tight

 Hurl him into the ocean, one of them cold sweat heat flash types

 With extreme fluctuations and temperature changes

 Have been known to crack pipes...

 ...crack pipes...crack pipes...

 

 Meet me-- half way in a gold, extra length just to help your strength

 Meet me-- at the AA meeting, needing to take more then 12 steps

 Bring me to your hiding place, so I can face your vice grip

 I'll chisel every single monkey off your back with this ice pick

 Come meet up with me on the sidelines when the game is over

 Just to say hello, then afterwards, backstage

 To let me know that you enjoyed the show

 And go to grandma's house for Sunday dinner

 Sit at the table take away the fatal flaw

 you made the day before, I seen you bleed

 Meet me-- on Christmas Eve, we can fight but make up before you leave

 Make peace with the rest of those that rest in pieces on my dreams

 Meet me at the fork in the road where lost souls get decisive

 Meet me at the crossroads so I can have someone to walk into the light with
