well i see no one has actually commented on anything but how messed up the lyrics are, but i was wondering if this song could be about like a freak out or bad trip or something. .
like the part:
"The radio is blastin'
Someone's knocking at the door
I'm lookin' at my girlfriend
She's passed out on the floor"
and then:
"I seen so many things
I ain't never seen before
Don't know what it is
I don't wanna see no more"
kinda sounding like hes had enough. . too many visuals. . and he just wants it to stop.
Born, 1951, grew up in the hippie movement.
Whiskey in your water is a term used for an abuser of alcohol
Sugar (coke) in your tea (brewed mary jane) Combination drug usages were common to find a new high. Drugs were not what hey are today. Parties like these were peaceful, full of friendliness, lots of free sex. No one abused anyone or unfortunately some one, possibly on a bad trip would break your back and toss you out a 3 story window. BS was not tolerated with the hippies. They were passive but if you crossed the wrong one, say on...

Everything else is pretty much self stated including 'that cigaret you're smoking (what you people call a blunt today) is scarin me to death" (the way they sang the song) They were great in concert and their concerts were in fact a live version of their songs, this one included.
