Party Drugs

from Revelution! by John D Revelator

/

about

Sadly based on a number of true tales though happily not mine – remember drugs are for losers kids! Once again it’s unnecessarily potty mouthed!

lyrics

Party Drugs
G
He says he’s going down the shed for quality time
D
We all know he’s really chopping a line
He’ll be outwardly exuberant & feeling fine
C G
But inside a little bits died

G D
See, Dad’s been doing party drugs again
He aint been this fucked, he aint took this much
C
Since I can’t think when
G D
Dad’s been doing party drugs again
His frontal lobe’s fucked & his septum’s a gone-er
He’s whiffed more sniff than Maradona
C G
Dad’s been doing party drugs again

Trying to recreate the 80’s Manchester scene
With silly hats, glow sticks & vapo-rub cream
The Mondays & the Roses & Primal Scream
Still “Mad for it” in his dreams

Dad’s been doing party drugs again
He aint been this fucked, he aint took this much
Since I can’t think when
Dad’s been doing party drugs again
His gone all gurney & his puils are swelling
The tell-tale signs of a twisted melon
Dad’s been doing party drugs again

Bm Am G
But when the party’s over & Blue Tuesday comes back round
Bm Am G
He’ll be sobbing uncontrollably, his chin scraping the ground
Bm Am G
He’ll be longing for the good times when Mum was still around
Bm Am D
And like a vain hope of fellatio, no succour can be found

Dad’s been doing party drugs again
He aint been this fucked, he aint took this much
Since I can’t think when
Dad’s been doing party drugs again
He cant stop shaking & sniffing & crying
He’s chewing like Fergie during extra time
Dad’s been doing party drugs again

Instrumental
(over Bm Am G x3 Bm Am D)

Yeah, Dad’s been doing party drugs again
He’s been this way since Mum fucked off with his best friend
Dad’s been doing party drugs again
D
Been piling down the pill s & the powders in the clubs
Mitsis, Meow-meow & little white Doves
But it just don’t matter how many drugs
C G
It still don’t kill the pain
