Well let me tell you darlin' I've been high most of my life,

And a dream is just a wish that a heart makes,

I used to sell ya, sell ya, sell ya,

Only things you could find in a drug store.

People used to tell me, tell me, tell me,

Just what kinda high they were lookin' for.

Take a ride on a purple airplane,

Honey I don't know when I'll be back again.

Cause I got broken bones,

Not from the sticks and stones

But from the names that you call me.

Hey you got the picture do you know what I mean,

I'm the fire baby and you're the gasoline.

You like my characteristics, you like my stones,

Call me all the names you say and break my bones.
