I Remember Quaaludes

I remember Quaaludes

But not very well

Back when pills had potency

Those dosages were hell

 

Just one word, it may be absurd

But I heard it down in the jungle

With the lack of dope they’ve given up hope

And they really are ready to rumble

 

When you look around any kind of town

You’ll see the writing on the wall

They gotta make room, that big old boom

Is just about ready to fall

 

The fascist attack is worse than crack

That’s a fact that’s true

The fascist attack is worse than crack

They’re cracking down on you

 

I remember prohibition

That bathtub gin was vile

Sometimes it would blind you

But always leave you with a smile

 

I remember acid

When it was plentiful and cheap

A hit of Orange Sunshine

Keeps you high for a week
