Lyrics
1. ALL MY FRIENDS THEY BEEN ACTING SO STRANGE
HIGH ALL THE TIME, THE SCENE?S GETTIN? LAME
CALL ME UP AT 2AM, CAN I COME OVER AGAIN?
AND THEY?RE WALKIN, TALKIN, THINK THEY?RE REALLY ROCKIN
HAVE YOU HEARD THE LATEST POOR EXCUSE
SOME LIFELESS, SOULESS MACHINE, IT?S SUCH A HOLLOW SCENE
CHORUS: BUT THEY DON?T EVEN KNOW, ?CUZ THEY GOT A HEAD FULL OF SNOW
AND THEY DON?T EVEN KNOW,
THAT THEY?RE GOIN? NO WHERE
2. ALL THE TALK IS WHO?S BEEN WITH WHO YEAH
WHO?S BEEN SLEEPING WITH WHO LAST NIGHT?
CAN YOU SCORE SOME MORE FOR ME? LET?S GET HIGH AND WATCH TV
I THINK I?LL TAKE A SMALL VACATION
GET MY GEAR AND HEAD FOR THE WOODS
GET SOME AIR, ENGAGE IN SOME FISHIN?,
NO! I DON?T WANT NO LUDES!
CHORUS: BUT THEY DON?T EVEN KNOW, ?CUZ THEY GOT A HEAD FULL OF SNOW
AND THEY DON?T EVEN KNOW,
THAT THEY?RE GOIN? NO WHERE
