Exodus – Deathamphetamine

Methamfetamiinin vie viimeiseen lepoon = Deathamphetamine.

”Life spent with lips on glass
Another hit, just one more blast
How long can you make it last?
Hit the pipe and vaporize
Feel the rush, so energized
Your longs being to crystallize
Try to stem the tide
From another five day ride
Don’t you know your dead inside?
The world spins out of control
All amped up, nowhere to go
A glass house is all you know”

Down – Hail the Leaf

Elämä ei tässä biisissä niin sanotusti oikein kulje. Kaveri haluaisi vain olla poltella, unohtaa ja unohtua.

”that brave river, I can’t sail.
because of that lone feeling,
that I might fail.
So {fuck it.}
I just smoke-
let me feel stoned”

Clawfinger – Die High

Clawfingerin kakkosalbumin biisissä varoitellaan huumeiden käytöstä.

”There’s a lot of good reasons but no excuse
You can never justify your drug abuse
You can legalize the hit but the problems remain
You still feel like shit the effect’s the same
You’re wasting your time with that fucking crap
The choice is yours and I can give you that
And you still want to get high”

Black Sabbath – Fairies Wear Boots

Hassuja halluja tuolla Ozzylla…

”Goin’ home, late last night
Suddenly I got a fright
Yeah I looked through the window and surprised what I saw
Fairy boots were dancing’ with a dwarf,

All right now!

Fairies wear boots and you gotta believe me
Yeah I saw it, I saw it, I tell you no lies
Yeah Fairies wear boots and you gotta believe me
I saw it, I saw it with my own two eyes,

Well all right now!

So I went to the doctor
See what he could give me
He said ”Son, son, you’ve gone too far.
’Cause smokin’ and trippin’ is all that you do.”

Mötley Crüe – Dancing on Glass

Huumehelvetti on läpikäyty ja takaisin ei enää tahdota… lienee tämän biisin sanoma…

”Need one more rush
Then I know, I know I’ll stop
One extra push
Last trip to the top

Downtown, downtown

Silver spoon and needle
Witchy tombstone smile
I’m no puppet
I engrave my veins with style

I’ve been thru hell
And I’m never goin’ back
To dancing on glass”

Mötley Crüe – White Trash Circus

Hyvin omaelämänkerrallinen ralli juurikin bändin elämästä 80-luvulla. White thrash viitannee kokaiiniin.

”Been livin’ on the road about a year and a half
If we go another mile we’re gonna kick each other’s ass
Someone’s gonna quit or someone’s gonna die
And we don’t give a shit because we’re busy getting high
Another lawsuit another arrest
Wouldn’t change a thing because we love it to death”

Gwar – Crack in the Egg

”Crack in the egg
Crack in the egg
The time is right
Crack in my pipe”

”Will he be a happy child? Maybe
Most likely he’ll be a crack-baby
We infected his being with evil drugs
So he would grow up and be a thug..”

Tämä Amerikkalainen Lordin sukulainen laulaa hirviöistä. Ja tässä verenhimoisen Gor-Gorin syntymästä. Vois toimia myös metaforana huumeisiin…

Motörhead – Dead Men Tell No Tales

”You used to be my friend,
But that friendship’s coming to an end,
My meaning must be clear,
You know pity is all that you hear,
But if you’re doing smack,
You won’t be coming back,
I ain’t the one to make your bail,
Dead Men Tell No Tales”

Hm, Motörhead varoittelemassa heroiinin vaaroista…

Korn – Helmet in the Bush

Biisin on sanottu kertovan Kornin laulajan amfetamiinin käytöstä.

”I keep asking what’s your lie? It is disturbing, this isn’t right. Days keep
passing. One notch at a time. I don’t feel right. Please God let me sleep tonight.
Every day confronted. Sucker freinds, it’s giving in. I just wanna know why?
{want to} give it. . . I can’t escape. (3 times)
I keep asking, can you please try. It is
haunting, this tin stone mine. Days keep passing. Line after line. I don’t feel right.
Please God don’t let me die tonight.”

Down – Learn from This Mistake

Biisin on arveltu käsittelevän heroiiniaddiktiota.

”Believe me, all my friends, in the ending of the story
There’s no junkie out there with a happy ending
It consumes you, and haunts you like the devil
It’s the art of the process that kills off all the rebels

Learn from this mistake
Learn from my mistake
Learn from our mistake
Learn from my mistake”
