Lyrics
Welcome to the party Mr. So and So
Have a seat and sit down. Put this bullet up your nose
You just got to twist that little knob and
Pretty soon you be feeling fine
You won?t feel nothin? at all
Damn you sure do talk a lot but you ain?t making no sense
And Why you scratching your knees like that?
You?re Making ME tense
Take a breath man, take this pill It?ll bring you down fast and
Pretty soon you?ll be feeling fine
You won?t feel nothin? at all
Cocaine
Man?s best friend
Until he lets it get out of hand
Oh Cocaine
Try and understand
It doesn?t matter who you are
You?re Gonna want it again
Hey there Mr. Don?t I know you?
I guess its been a while
Where?s your fancy suit
An? your fancy tie
Where?s that happy smile?
What?s this? You threw it all away
Well that?s a damn shame, but don?t worry ?cuz
Pretty soon you?ll get your fix
You won?t have a troubled mind that?s right
Pretty soon you?ll leave this world, you won?t leave nothin? behind?except
Cocaine
Man?s best friend
Until he lets it get out of hand
Oh Cocaine
Try and understand
It doesn?t matter who you are
You?re Gonna want it and need it and you?re gonna
Want it again
