Stereophonics – I’m Alright (You Gotta Go There to Come Back)

Jonkun vuoksi tehdään tässä Stereophonicsien biisissä kovasti kaikenlaista… mm. käytetään huumeita.

”I’ll drink another drink for you
One, two, three, four, five, once I drank a fish alive
I’ll drop another pill for you
Six, seven, eight, nine, ten, did it before, I’ll do it again

I’ll tell another joke for you
Did you hear the one about the one that looks like you
I’ll sleep with sleep arounds for you
Why don’t you scratch my back and chew the tongue I chew

I’m alright
I’m alright

I’ll tell another lie for you
Tell you what you wanna hear, but that don’t make it true
I’ll wear another smile for you
That way you know I’m fine, and having fun with you

I’ll draw another line for you
That way you know I’m hip, that way you know I’m cool
I’ll smoke another smoke for you
I’ll blow back in your mouth and you can blow back too

I’m alright
I’m alright
You gotta go there to come back

I’ll take another punch for you
Tie my hands behind my back, that way you cannot lose
I’ll make another pound for you
So you can drive your motor car, and drive you to the moon

I’m alright
I’m alright

You. Me. Us. Free… we’re alright, alright

Love. Pain. Hate. Rain… we’re alright, alright

Give. Take. Time. Place… we’re alright, alright”

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”

The Streets – Blinded by the Lights

Biisissä kuvataan yhtä bileiltaa, jossa vedetään nappeja ja lähdetään juhlimaan. Ehdottomasti yksi parhaista  käyttökokemusta kuvaavista biiseistä…

”Maybe i shouldnt have done the second one, i feel all fidgety and warm…
(People pushin’ by, and walkin’ off into the night)
Whoa, everything in the room is spinning, i think i’m going to fall down,
my heart’s beating to quick, i’m fucking tripping out.
I wonder whether they got in, turned away no doubt.
Who cares, this is a tune coming in, that who where hes like…”

Lil Wyte – Oxycotton

Kaikenlaista sekaisin, kokaiinia, heroiinia, LSD:tä sun muita käydään kappaletta pitkin läpi. Kertoo diileristä joka tarjoa lähes mitä tahansa ja on itsekkin aika koukussa. Oxycotton on opioidipohjainen kipulääke.

”Oxycotton – Xanax Bars – Percocet and Lortab
Valiums – Morphine – patches – Exstacy – and it’s all up for grab
What you want – what you need – hit me up I got you mane”

Everclear – Amphetamine

”She came out west to find the sun
She lost her name but found a new one
Amy goes to school all day
But at night in the neighborhood they call her Amphetamine”

Tytöstä joka toipuu amfetamiiniriippuvuudesta vai amfetamiinin käytöstä (amy = amfetamiini) vai mistä?

Eminem – Must Be the Ganja

Mielenkiintoiset sanat. Mitenköhän päin nämä pitäisi tulkita?

”When the smoke rises, right before your very own eyes
You stare into your stereos (hi)
Good evening, this isn’t even a weed thing
I ain’t even smoke anything, I ain’t even drinking

It must be the ganja, it’s the marijuana
That’s creepin’ upon me, why I’m so high
Maybe it’s the henny, that has gotten in me
Whatever’s got into me I don’t mind”
