Been Smoking Too Long

Artist：nick drake

Songs Title：been smoking too long

Well I wake up in the morning

Look at my clock

Its way past noon time

Now Im late for work.

Tell me, tell me

What have I done wrong?

Aint nothing go right with me

Must be Ive been smoking too long.

Well I go to find me some breakfast

But I aint got no food

Take me a shower

But the water dont feel no good.

Tell me...

Ive got opium in my chimney

No other life to choose

Nightmare made of hash dreams.

Got the devil in my shoes

Tell me...

Well when Im smoking

Put my worries on a shelf

Dont think about nothin

Try not to see myself.

Tell me...

Well in this blues Im singin

Theres a lesson to be learned

Dont go around smokin

Unless you want to get burned.

Tell me...
