Pruno Lyrics
Falling farther with a flaming hand
I knew the question but I lost the answers
I’ll hold the wall for all
I’ll hold it all for all
As long as no one asks no questions.
I got the message
And the message stood
One, Two, three
I got another, got another
One, Two, three
I got another, got another
I got another hit that held me the last time
Don't ya know what I mean boys?
One, Two, three
I got another, got another.
Falling fast but doing all I can
I know the questions but I lost the answers
I got the message and the message stood
Lease the one who makes it
Profit from the riddle
Kill the one that breaks it
Always in the middle
Keep the dream alive
with sleeping pills you shouldn't fiddle
Lease the one that makes it
Profit from the riddle
I got the message but I lost the race
I got the message but I lost the race
Well... Pruno is a term used in prisons for fermented fruit (alcohol) made in plastic bags to get f-ed up on. I think the song is about keeping up a veneer of having your things together while you're really falling apart.
you did that in prison?
you did that in prison?
thanks dude i had no idea what pruno meant

SUCH AN UNDERRATED SONG...
Yeah I agree emsguared. As well, the line "I got another hit that held me the last time" really reminds me of like a bong hit or some sort of drug hits or a swig from some alcahol, etc. It simply sounds like hes getting fucked up or did.. On something! Haha
what i cant believe this song doesnt have more comments its great! like most STP songs i think it has a double meaning... anyways i jam this almost everyday
double meaning indeed, see my comment above talking about "another" sounding like "the math done" for non-native english speakers, which in turn might be a play on words of "math" sounding like "meth"... The guy is just a GENIUS songwriter

Drugs or no drugs, they'll always be my favorite band, and I will always think Scott is talented, preferably when sober =)
this song is well good! Well to be honest i think every STP song is lol but yeah i love it, really beautiful lyrics, and so catchy too!
i bet this song is really energetic live... i wonder if theyve ever even played this song live
Saw it live in Buenos Aires 2010, almost 2-hours set, talk about "energetic" haha

Oops, my bad, they didn't played Pruno live, they played Heaven and Hot Rods, and I remember thinking at the time "damn, wish they played Pruno which is much better" youtube.com/watch
