[Intro]

This song is dedicated to the Hungry Spot. R.I.P.


[Verse 1]

I watched this kid the other day with his face melting off

Porridge in his politics, cozy in his socks

So many downers he’s asleep in his pizza

Peterin’ awake to passed out with each piece

And the cheese dripping off the ketamine scrunch

With his eyes sunk heavy in their bunks

Imaginary weight lullin’ him down, heavy as the nevermind

Everyone has come to crown in our tippin’ lifetime

Path-find, half-arsed, half mind ticking over

Last laugh comes when the pleasure dome cracks

Etiquettes slacks coal black in the turbines

Wind power couldn’t blow this kid to his feet

So nature takes a back seat to endorphins

Pumpin’ so rapidly this cat still gurns while he’s snoring

Looks at me laughin’ like I’m law enforcement

Like I don’t understand why being high’s important?


[Chorus]

It ain’t new, kiddo, don’t pretend you’re the biz

When I was that wasted I didn’t know shit

I ain’t being arrogant, some of us have to go

Through a chemical phase to outer the blues

But it ain’t new, kiddo, don’t pretend you’re the biz

When I was that wasted I didn’t know shit

That’s all I’m saying, that’s all I’m saying


[Verse 2]

Going doctorshoppin’ so often it’s odd to be off ‘em

Clockin’ on boffins of toxins offered for profit, make your speech lag

Pharmaceuticals built for farm animals

Into the k-hole we go, bro, stay close

Post your status to a cable car

Headed to the same destination, information graveyard

We blaze vacant, haze makeshift, painstakin’

Delayed greyness, empty void gazes

Animal injectin’, runnin’ with the stallions

Passed out on barstools, inanimate database

Cosy as the pillow talk followin’ the drop

And the bliss on the ventricles when pill seal pop

I’ll admit to myself I still really wanna be him

Stardom ‘til the last stage callin’ “carpe diem”

Dude’s data’s on some C++ when I see him

Always hungry on that coke crust lust I’d pay to be in


[Chorus]

But it ain’t new, kiddo, don’t pretend you’re the biz

When I was that wasted I didn’t know shit

I ain’t being arrogant, some of us have to go

Through a chemical phase to outer the blues

But it ain’t new, kiddo, don’t pretend you’re the biz

When I was that wasted I didn’t know shit

That’s all I’m saying, didn’t know diddly-squat

Alright?


[Verse 3]

So now I’m all growns up and the highs all suck

And I’m tryna cut back on the ones they can tax

And I’m fiending in secret for a rush I could touch

Like a thick cloud from the time when the buzz was heavy

In it’s petting on a level of adrenaline

In heaven with an unsettled vendetta tellin’ me to

Hug everybody ‘til the thug turn trend setter

Marshmallow world in a fleece sweater

Two fat bricks from the Hungry Spot

Thirty second cream charge, eight per lot

Eight times thirty seconds worth its bucks

But now I’m too fuckin’ old for a nitrous influx


[Chorus]

It ain’t new, kiddo, don’t pretend you’re the biz

When I was that wasted I didn’t know shit

I ain’t being arrogant, some of us have to go

Through a chemical phase to outer the blues

I understand, dude

Just don’t be a douche
