Analysis of One Toke Over The Line
here comes the frenzy after the movies
places you want to see
burning through my legacy
lock horns with the coroner at the morgue
sweat of my brow
the faint of a cow
that's how we roll
let the truth be told
stuffed inside your mold
love lingers on with the faint of a song
happy to be a rooster on a roller coaster
music is getting louder
having my clam with chowder
something in my folder
tell you when I get a bit older
takes you by surprise
leave behind those satanic lies
bridges being crossed
we stand alone in the stream
living in a land so very mean
coupled with a bit of tender laughter
prepared for the great hereafter
there is more
remember Studio 64
heroin in the gym
one toke over the line & then
mother superior bought the gun bang bang shoot shoot
a bit of fun under the gun
now Bourdain is dead
what was going on inside his head
he would even eat the dead
suicidal
could we get some answers
could we attempt to understand
how we stick it to the man with the plan
hearts are uneasy the trip is so long
this is the end of my favorite song
