Watching you flip the minnow
Is my favorite thing to do on the 4th of July
When I'm down, I just wanna hit it
Well, I don't care what was goin' on
All night long, before I walked in the door
All I know is if you're with it
Hell yeah, I'm with it

Oh...if I get bounced
Do me a favor, and stick around

Don't look now, but your panties
Are hangin' behind you, on the snake's tank over there
Now don't go pick 'em up, I'm just sayin'
Now where were we...yeah, tell me
How many exclamation points you're lookin' for
And tell your boyfriend, we're just playin'

We're just playin' in this cemetery
It's 4 o'clock already
And there's no one left around
So c'mon Krista, bury me
I've been here since January
And you're the darkest thing I've found
Yeah

Watching you fall in love
Over and over, God, look at the head on that fucking guy
I don't get it
Well, I don't care, it won't bother me
When tomorrow you don't talk to me at all
I won't let it
I won't

Oh...before I drop
Do me a favor, and turn around
Yeah

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
