The priceless aroma, far into tasty comas
Makes me wonder why I can't ignore the fact
That I'm a filthy liar and I'm preaching to the choir in my head
"What's right and what's wrong" is just a blurry song
And it's blasting in my ear all year long
I really can't determine so I guess I'll just keep burning out my lungs
Well no one really gets me and I do not fucking care
Because my real concerns are stabbing me, I'm totally aware
And I could attack them head on but I'd really rather not
So I'll exhale all the smoky lies, laugh, and eat, and cough
Oh dear herb, your joy rubs off your tangled hair and purple eyes
Deodorant as my disguise
I might just let them smell it, then they're asking me to sell it then and there
Sensation, so tingly, let my body fall unto thee
Then I'll laugh it off, and my senses are now craving
I'll probably buy a pizza, hope it's not a big deal to ya, or you can fuck yourself
Well no one really gets me and I do not fucking care
Because my real concerns are stabbing me, I'm totally aware
And I could attack them head on but I'd really rather not
So I'll exhale all the smoky lies, laugh, and eat, and cough
Nowhere we're going, except out of this reality
To escape the tortures of our humanity
Marijuana, you can shake me from my somber
And I beg you stay just to live another day
Release the flame, it burns the pain, and puff it so you'll never hurt again
Well no one really gets me and I do not fucking care
Because my real concerns are stabbing me, I'm totally aware
And I could attack them head on but I'd really rather not
So I'll exhale all the smoky lies, laugh, and eat, and cough tonight
