Been Smoking Too Long

'yeah, I really, um, I really, I really wanted to kind of like,

to capture some kind of like moment, but maybe it's better if I'm sober...'


Wake up in the morning, I look at my clock

it's way past noontime, I'm late for work.

Tell me what have I done wrong?

nothing can go right with me it must be that I've been smoking

too long


Go to fix me some breakfast, I ain't got no food

take me a shower, the water don't feel no good.

Tell me what have I done wrong?

and nothing can go right with me must be that I've been smoking

too long


I got opium in my chimney, no other life to choose

nightmares made of hash dreams, the devil in my shoes.

What have I done wrong?

yeah nothing can go right with me it must be that I've been smoking

too long


When I'm smoking, smoking, put my worries on a shelf

try not to think about nothing, don't wanna see myself

What have I done wrong?

and nothing can go right with me it must be that I've been smoking

too long


In this blues I'm singing, there's a lesson to be learned

you go round smoking, you're gonna get burned

Fuck me what have I done wrong?

nothing can go right with me must be that I've been smoking

too long
