Huumeet ei ole keskeisin sisältö tässä biisissä, mutta onhan tämä säkeistö kyllä hieno:
”At times I’m truly terrified
’Cause dope and booze
Don’t help to hide
They’re used to mask
A weakling’s hurt
It’s just like painting
Over dirt”

Weezer – Do You Wanna Get High?
Crush up the blue
And inhale through your nose
Scrape every quark
From the wood in the floor
She said: Do you wanna get high?
Don’t eat no dinner tonight
I took a road trip to Mexico
And scored a hundred count
Do you wanna get high?
It’s like we’re falling in love
We can listen to Bacharach
And stop at any point
Now our bones start to ache
As we cramp on the pot
And we fall to the floor
With our face in a knot
She said: Do you wanna get high?
Don’t eat no dinner tonight
I took a road trip to Mexico
And scored a hundred count
Do you wanna get high?
It’s like we’re falling in love
We can listen to Bacharach
And stop at any point
Keep on doing what you do
‘Cuz I’ll never get tired of you
Don’t need booze
‘Cuz I’ll never get tired of you
Stop the tape,
kill the lights,
close the drapes
And keep doing what you do
‘Cuz I’ll never get tired of you
She said: Do you wanna get high?
Don’t eat no dinner tonight
I took a road trip to Mexico
And scored a hundred count
Do you wanna get high?
It’s like we’re falling in love
We can listen to Bacharach
Black Label Society – Stoned And Drunk
Eipä ole paljon lohtua tässä The Blessed Hellride -levyn avausbiisissä. Elämä niin sanotusti viturallaan.
”Disillusioned, pure confusion
Where I’m rolling, never never knowing
Walkin’ minefields, all is surreal
Where I’m rolling, never never knowing
Walked out of my mind
Don’t want to find, whatevers left
Poppin’ pills and drinkin’ booze
Smokin’ everyday
Stoned and drunk completely gone
My world is here to stay
Ain’t no silence, constant violence,
Where I’m rolling, never never knowing
Demolition, crucifixion
Where I’m rolling, never never knowing
Walked out of my mind,
Don’t want to find, whatevers left
Stoned and drunk completely gone
My world is here to stay
Hide my fears and kill my doubts
Whatevers in my way
Poppin’ pills and drinkin’ booze
Smokin’ everyday
Stoned and drunk completely gone
My world is here to stay”
Joni Mitchell – Blue
Joni Mitchell veistelee aika onnistuneesti hippikauden loppumisesta tässä vuoden 1971 Blue levyn nimikappaleessa. Rakkaus, pössis ja hyvä tahto on muuttunut muotoon: Acid, booze, and ass / Needles, guns, and grass / Lots of laughs, lots of laughs. Erinomaisen onnistuneet rivit minusta.
”Blue, songs are like tattoos
You know I’ve been to sea betore
Crown and anchor me
Or let me sail away
Hey Blue, here is a song for you
Ink on a pin
Underneath the skin
An empty space to fill in
Well there’re so many sinking now
You’ve got to keep thinking
You can make it through these waves
Acid, booze, and ass
Needles, guns, and grass
Lots of laughs, lots of laughs
Everybody’s saying that hell’s the hippest way to go
Well I don’t think so
But I’m gonna take a look around it though
Blue, I love you
Blue, here is a shell for you
Inside you’ll hear a sigh
A foggy lullaby
There is your song from me”
Project X – Straight Edge Revenge
Tässä biisissä tuodaan suht suorasukaisesti esiin Streittareiden mielipide niin alkoholiin kuin huumeisiinkin.
”I’m as straight as the line that you sniff up your nose
I’m as hard as the booze that you swill down your throat
I’m as bad as the shit you breath into your lungs
And I’ll fuck you up as fast as the pill on your tongue
STRAIGHT EDGE REVENGE
This time you pushed me too far!
I’m as straight as the line that you sniff up your nose
I’m as hard as the booze that you swill down your throat
I’m as bad as the shit you breath into your lungs
And I’ll fuck you up as fast as the pill on your tongue
STRAIGHT EDGE REVENGE”
