Lyric discussion by Grisnjam 

Cover art for $300 lyrics by Soul Coughing

Definitely about drugs (herion):

"Lifting me up like a garage door I need to feel it when the drug starts coming on "

And how he knows god must not be happy with his addiction:

"I know you Lord are a jealous lord I know the tablet is your competition"

But he still continues in the hope god will forgive:

"And I need for you to be reasonable "

I think this line is about buying the drugs:

"How much? She said for three hundred dollars I'll do it "

But I think is should be written like this:

"How much? She said for three hundred dollars. I'll do it "

Not sure what the last bits about rain and skin mean. Must the H talking.

@Grisnjam (13 years later) Opioids, yes - but smack is never sold as a tablet. Probably Oxycontin or some similar highly priced pharmaceutical painkiller.
