So when I’m fed up I get red up Mary Jane messed my head up She can be my best friend forever At times I regret that I met her When she eats all my cheddar But she makes life seem better Like whatever Stressin’ me out she settles me down Put it in the air bredder spread it around But don’t abuse it We using the temple ball From Nepal as a mental tool Meditating like we're meant to Just the way God intended When I pick up the pencil and scrawl the splendid I used to use cigarette mix and blend it Now I don’t tend to peng everybody offended If they criticise weed defend it A crystallised hydro glistenin’ Blow my mind like nitro-glycerine This is the deal All day every day give you something to feel We bark weed Sticky green trees Pick out the stalk no stick and no seed We stay lean off this THC 9 ounce to the bar 4 bars to the ki We bark weed Sticky green trees Pick out the stalk no stick and no seed We stay lean off this THC 9 ounce to the bar 4 bars to the ki Peripheral switch to weed with spliffs and chips And cigs remove the twig That’s the life of the weed and ting With king slims and choice blends to no end High kaya fire burnin’ sess with friends Man I burn it with the best of them The broken men Street soldiers strapping out us with a leafy stem High fliers with a focus loads of Bush and peng Knock it on to the pozzers and they’re back again Buy cheap sell high and subsidise when you buy Still I walk straight through this crimson tide Yet you all polluters don’t know what one hit could provide Best just step aside I take a pole and I glide Way off into the stratosphere Astral-glazed I’m being slayed from the potency Toxicated commodity my property Meditated with ease the weed flows through my blood stream We bark weed Sticky green trees Pick out the stalk no stick and no seed We stay lean off this THC 9 ounce to a bar 4 bars to a ki We bark weed Sticky green trees Pick out the stalk no stick and no seed We stay lean off this THC 9 ounce to a bar 4 bars to a ki Even the dry shit, thai stick All types of hybrid The black resin smelling unpleasant when you light it This is for the friends I got high with, by with The glistening eyes and the Chinese eyelids Sky-high kids from the Hackney highrises To Ruislip With their spliffs in a vice grip Puffin’ Northern Lights and the smugglers who brought it over borderlines Flying in for the cannabis cup Till I damage a lung And my cabbage is bruk Either way I’m getting lean today and tomorrow never comes So I’m sat in my drums strappin’ fat shit I’m done We bark weed Sticky green trees Pick out the stalk no stick and no seed We stay lean off the THC 9 ounce to the bar 4 bars to the ki We bark weed Sticky green trees Pick out the stalk no stick and no seed We stay lean off the THC 9 ounce to the bar 4 bars to the ki Weed Weed... |

| The Chemical Brothers – Do It Again Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
Personally I think if it's about drugs it's about DMT and people doing it left right and centre at festivals, people see "oh it's a drug", take it for a bit of fun, think "Jesus what I have done" when it hits them harder than any other psychedelic, and then 10 minutes later they're like "Actually that was fun, lets do another hit" - happens everywhere, but particularly in the UK. Unlike most people here I'm not gonna claim my theory is fact though, that's just what I'd take a guess at, if it's drugs I'm pretty sure it's DMT or another short acting psychedelic or dissociative (maybe nitrous)? |

| Gorillaz – Clint Eastwood Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
Like all songs this has several keys to figuring out the meaning. Firstly there are sound clips from "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly" - the Clint Eastwood film, and the "sunshine in a bag" could refer to money in a bag - hence the name of the song. However, there is another "sunshine" people sometimes forget. Rewind 30 years, "Sunshine Acid" was a particular potent form of LSD manufactured that was as high as 300 micrograms (that's about 3x as potent as a relatively potent tab of blotter these days) - it was commonly referred to as just "Sunshine" "I ain't happy. I'm feeling glad. I got sunshine in a bag. I'm useless, but not for long. The future is coming on." - When dosing there is a sense of apprehension about the trip, you're not quite happy, but you're feeling glad that you're about to trip. The sunshine refers to sunshine acid, and the "I'm useless, but not for long" describes how it will benefit him. Then the "The future is coming on" part refers to the come up, as it takes approximately an hour and a half from dosing to feel the effects. "Yeah, ha ha. Finally someone let me out of my cage." - Often when consuming psychedelics, people feel that something is "released" within them. "Now time for me is nothing 'cause I'm counting no age." - Psychedelics cause time dilation, a minute can feel like an hour, or time can stand still completely for what seems like weeks. "No, I couldn't be there. No, you shouldn't be scared. I'm good at repairs and I'm under each snare." - Psychedelics often make people afraid, even those who have never taken them, but they can be powerful healing tools - and the tripper just needs to remember that the psychedelics are only so powerful, they won't kill you or make you do anything stupid. "Panoramic view, look I'll make it all manageable." - Psychedelics change perception, making it easier to analyse things, LSD in particular does this a lot. "Chicks and dudes, who you think is really kicking tunes?" - Here they're talking about how much psychedelics have influenced music, they're saying it's not the artists that came up with the ideas, but the acid. "You think it's fictional? Mystical, maybe. Spiritual hero who appears in you to clear your view when you're too crazy." - Talking about how some people don't understand psychedelics and think they can't help you, when really they're a very powerful aid. They can also "clear your view" as suggested when things are clouding up your mind, by removing the ego, or "mental chatter" temporarily. "Priceless to you because I put you on the hype shit." - This is about how it has benefited him in his creative work - creating music. "You like it? Gun smoking, righteous, with one toke, psychic Among those, possess you with one go." - This is the part that confuses people, as a toke is the inhalation of Cannabis smoke - however people often smoke while on LSD as it can heighten the trip and make it more intense, one toke of even the best Cannabis will do very little, but while you're tripping, that's another matter. "The essence, the basics, without it, you make it. Allow me to make this childlike in nature. Rhythm, you have it or you don't, that's a fallacy. I'm in them, every sprouting tree, every child apiece, Every cloud at sea, you see with your eye. You see destruction and demise, corruption in disguise, From this fucking enterprise" - Anyone who has ever taken psychedelics will probably get a sense of deja vu when they first hear this song. This part in particular very much explains a large part of psychedelics. When the ego is lost you feel a strong sense of one-ness, that life is in everything, every rock, every tree, every bird, every person. It also gives a sense of duality, you see the love in everyone, but you also see the destruction and hate, the murder, the corruption in the government and corporate enterprises. "Y'all can see me now 'cause you don't see with your eye. You perceive with your mind. That's the inner." - Do I really need to explain this part? Really? Just do a simple Google search for "third eye", or "inner eye", "inner mind" and "psychedelics" "Bust a few rhymes so motherfuckers remember Where the thought is. I brought all this So you can survive when law is lawless. Feelings, sensations that you thought was dead. No squealing, remember that it's all in your head." - This whole last part is going on about how the song's basically a quick dedication to psychedelics and telling people not to worry and go with the trip, because it's just a drug and it'll be over soon - even if the experience is going bad. |
