Dusted Lyrics

I still miss the smell of a
dead skunk on the Pasedena freeway
wind rippin' though my veins
little shiny aeroplanes
blowin' up my skirt
nothing ever hurt
never gonna die
and the look in your eye
like fireworks
got one hand on the wheel
the other getting fresh with the corduroy
covering my angel boy
but I'm gone gone gone

I'm dusted
I'm gone I'm gone I'm gone
I'm dusted
I'm gone I'm gone I'm gone
I'm dusted
I'm gone gone gone
I'm dust.

A pretty boy's a bad boy
and a pretty girl's like a dirty pearl
the boys I know suck 'til they blow
the girlies still are good to go
the girl downstairs with her crem-delish
and the one on the couch eating Bananafish
I'd like to curl you up with a better book
but there's no finer fish to hook
and I'm gone gone gone

I'm dusted
I'm gone I'm gone I'm gone
I'm dusted
I'm gone I'm gone I'm gone
I'm dusted
I'm gone gone gone
I'm dusted

If I only had a brain
If I only had a brain
If I only had a brain it would give me something more to deliver but I'm gone...

I still miss the smell of a
dead skunk on the Pasedena freeway
wind rippin' though my veins 
little shiny aeroplanes
blowin' up my skirt
nothing ever hurt
never gonna die
and the look in your eye
like fireworks
got one hand on the wheel
the other getting fresh with the corduroy
covering my angel boy
but I'm gone gone gone

I'm dusted
I'm gone I'm gone I'm gone
I'm dusted 
I'm gone I'm gone I'm gone
I'm dusted 
I'm gone gone gone
I'm dust.

A pretty boy's a bad boy
and a pretty girl's like a dirty pearl
the boys I know suck 'til they blow
the girlies still are good to go
the girl downstairs with her crem-delish
and the one on the couch eating Bananafish
I'd like to curl you up with a better book
but there's no finer fish to hook
and I'm gone gone gone

I'm dusted
I'm gone I'm gone I'm gone
I'm dusted
I'm gone I'm gone I'm gone
I'm dusted 
I'm gone gone gone 
I'm dusted

If I only had a brain
If I only had a brain
If I only had a brain it would give me something more to deliver but I'm gone...

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I think this song is about how Carla is done with her old life but still misses it. The drugs "wind rippin' though my veins " and the sex "the other [hand] getting fresh with the corduroy covering my angel boy".
