"vices"

“vices”

have you had your vice today?
probably two or three anyway
it takes some practice to do ‘em right
smokin’ and drinkin’ and stayin’ up all night

there is harder stuff and some kinda mellow
hunter thompson did ‘em all but he was an unusual fellow
george bush used to do blow so he ain’t no virgin
doctors drink a lot of liquor and that includes your surgeon

thomas jefferson smoked a little pot
i’m sure paul maccartney smokes quite a lot
heroin and morphine took a lot of stars
in the twenties they all drank whisky in illegal bars

so don’t feel too bad or think yourself weak
if you sometimes get too stoned to speak
when you must give in a feed your head
just consider the company your’re keepin’ instead
