I had not taken acid for twelve years,nBut one night last summer I did.nI was adrift in a bar room,nActing like a jerk and a kid.nnI knew we were asking for trouble,nTrouble was what we would get.nFive of us dropped in the girls' room,nPsycadilisized insane quintet.nnWell that bathroom got crowded in no time,nOur minds were all blown in one flash,nEveryone in there got ugly,nWe exited out of there fast.nnBack in the bar we were happy,nFeeling great, no problem,nBack in the bar we were fine.nTill Johnny turned into a Nazi,nAnd Mary threw up all her wine.nnWell in no time we all were ejected,nSoon we were out on the street.nThe sidewalk began to perspire,nWe had glass and dog shit at our feet.nnWe went over to Mary's apartmentnCome on!nTo listen to the Grateful Dead.nOn the way there we lost Johnny,nHe had opted for Bellevue instead.nnWell I'm really glad we did this, it feels great. Just like the old days, I love this.nI know my hair's on fire, it's like incense or something.nYou know, your face is melting,nIt is, it's all the colours of the rainbow.nnHey you wanna hold some fruit?nCome on, hold some fruit!nIt breeds, it really does!nHave a cantaloupe, come on.nAh, no I dunno where the Donovan tape is.nnWell I had to get out of that city,nBobby was bringing me down.nMe and my darling young Susie,nSaid so long and drove out of town.nnDriving on acid is easynDriving on acid's a breeze.nJust keep the car on the highwaynDon't laugh and don't fart and don't sneeze.nnOh we got to my house in the countrynIn the country mannThe trees were all throbbing and greennSusie was sure she had cancernI was sure I was James DeannnWe went down the lake to go swimmingnCome on let's try it outnDown to the lake for a swimnSusie said, water cures cancernI asked her to please call me Jim.nnYes acid is usually dangerousnThe mild-mannered can quickly turn meannLSD can surely derange usnUnless you possess ThorazinennSo next time you wanna go out therenWhen you feel like fitting your headnThink twice before dropping acidnHold out for mushrooms instead!
