Verse 1:
Well you run down to the corner baby, see what you can cop
You get some for your sister and you take yours off the top
Run into the bathroom, fixing up a shot
Tie it up, shoot it up, bang your head, and throw it up
Chorus:
Too much junkie business
Too much junkie business
Too much junkie business
I don't wanna fuck around with you
Verse 2:
Your life becomes as sickening as that mess you call your face
The pig you call your girlfriend is dead from shooting mace
Climbing up the walls, you shot some old moth balls
Wrap it up, call it art, now your record makes the chart
Chorus
Repeat Intro
Bridge:
Too much junk, too much junk,
Too much junk, too much junk,
Too much junk, too much junk,
( second time thru)
I don't wanna see her hanging out with you
Repeat Intro
Verse 3:
Well you're the coolest thing in town, with your face flat on the ground
Friends went through your pockets as the coffin went down
You overdosed at last, spike stuck in your head
Now you're dead...dead! dead! dead!
Bridge
there you go throw some Johnny Thunders slides in every now and then.
if you wanna play the NY Dolls, "Pills" basically the same song, just key of E
