| The Lawrence Arms – The YMCA Down the Street from the Clinic Lyrics | 7 years ago |

I think it goes a little further than what puddlejumper says. I get hints of heroin in the songs. "This sweet and sticky dream was nothing that I needed" "I got a bad, sick stink, and I’m bathing in the sink" - Heroin use makes you smell really bad. "Just demons to believe; poisons lined up to feed ‘em" - Lined up, like train tracks. "I got these black rotten teeth Cracking off in bloody beef" - Heroin causes toothloss Even the title, down the street from clinic, seem to point to a methadone clinic. I agree though, definitely one of their best songs. |
