DEXEDRINE
SPIN Good afternoon gentlemen, this
meeting is adjourned it’s always a
pleasure doing business with you until our next
transaction, I bid you all a sweet adieu I’m in a
hurry to catch a flight got a client on the
coast who plays no favorites his friends are
numbered … Packed my case of
beer carton of
cigarettes and a stacked deck
of cards cause I’ll be
playing solitaire with the devil tonight So send a message
to the captain to the admiral to the fleet this man has
mutined and he refuses to
eat cause there’s
acid in the water mescaline in the
air don’t know
how I’ll ever make it and at this point
really don’t care cause I’ve
got one little - two little - three little black
ones … up and down on the
dexedrine spin So come on all you
sailors lend a great big
hand there are bridges
burning across the water confusion on the
land personal
anarchy’s on our very doorstep so let the flag fly
‘high’ And the lessons of
the past from the first to
the last have been forgotten
in the rush to do
business with the man wearing a number on
his forehead and the candy in
his hand So send a message
to the captain to the admiral to the fleet the men have all
mutined and they refuse to
eat cause the ocean has
been supercharged waves have all
caught fire there’s a
storm raging like we’ve never seen our only chance is
to make it to the eye of the
hurricane cause we’ve
got four little - five little - six little white
ones … up and down on the
dexedrine spin © 1977
