Swingin' Utters - Pills and Smoke lyrics

rate me

I was a city baby raised on a well worn street

My daddy hated it because of its fame

I never noticed really I was too young at the time

To care about the history in its name

Some years go by and they move me to the sticks

Some dinky satellite of my old home

And it was there I took off to meet my mind on the streets

And it was there I made off on my own

And I've been sick

And I've been tired

I've been a madman slashing tires and starting fires

I'm not afraid

Cowards be damned

I'm full of pills and smoke and booze and I'm teenage

A few wasted years, a cup of tasteless tears

I learned my lessons the old fashioned way

Some think I'm angry and mean, but, hell, I'm only eighteen

There's only so much a kid can take

Another day, another time, My life and loves are in line

But I never lost the nerve that I had

It kept my insides clean my soul solid and lean

My independence guiding me through the crap

And I've been sick

And I've been tired

I've been a madman slashing tires and starting fires

I'm not afraid

Cowards be damned

I'm full of pills and smoke and booze and I'm teenage

I'm full of pills and smoke and I'm teenage

I ain't more, I can't get outta this

Gotta get some more pills,

Gotta get some more smoke,

Go on, go robbin'

And I've been sick

And I've been tired

I've been a madman slashing tires and starting fires

I'm not afraid

Cowards be damned

I'm full of pills and smoke and booze and I'm teenage

Gimme' some pills and smoke!
