Lyrics

Too Much Junkie Business

Well, you run down to the corner to see what you can cop

You buy some for your sister, you take yours off the top

Running to the bathroom, fixing up a shot

Tie it up, shoot it up, bang it up, throw it up

Too much junkie business

Too much junkie business

Too much junkie business

I don't wanna fuck around with you

Your life becomes as sickening as that mess you call your face

That pig you call your girlfriend, she's dead from shooting mace

Climbing up the walls, shooting old moth balls

Wrap it up, call it art, now your record hits the chart

Too much junkie business

Too much junkie business

Too much junkie business

I don't wanna fuck around with you

Too much junk

Too much junk

Too much junk

Too much junk

Too much junk

Too much junk

I don't wanna see her hanging out with you

You're the coolest thing in town with your face flat on the ground

Friends emptied your pockets as the coffin went down

Overdose at last, spike stuck in your head

Now you're dead, dead, dead, dead

Too much junkie business

Too much junkie business

Too much junkie business

I don't wanna fuck around with you

Too much junk

Too much junk

Too much junk
