Why Do You Think They Call It Dope?

Why do you think they call it dope?
 Nighttime, shooting star, the sun started to rain
 Trees lost branches, gurus' trances, black-brassiered dancers
 Little dears
 Showdown's coming, it's no joke, mouth is running, it's a stroke
 That's what I think when I'm so fucked up I can't even find the door
 Why do you think they call it dope?
 Why do you think they call it dope?
 When your heart beats fast, you're so broke, in your car with the red
 lights flashing
 Look sincere, smell like beer, roach in the ashtray
 Going to the pokey
 Thirty days later, ten bucks left, hands are shaking
 Looking for a dime bag
 Why do you think they call it dope?
 Why do you think they call it dope?
 Dirty little dopers on dope so bad
 Dirty little dopers on dope so bad
 When two and two turn into five you'll probably see it my way
 When bad is good, like it should, things turn upside down
 Some people say it's hip to say no, my town it's green light go
 For party rockin' angels now it's trigger happy
 Slang-bang-pow
