Well I wish, I was born A thousand years ago And I wish that I sailed The darkened sea On a great big clipper ship Goin’ from this land into that In a sailors suit and cap Away from the big city - Away from the big city
Where a man cannot be free Of all the evils in this town And of himself and those around And I’m closin’ in on death
And I guess that I just don’t know And I guess that I just don’t know
Ah - jesus died for somebody’s sins But not mine Jesus died for somebody’s sins But not mine
I don’t know just where I’m goin’ - ahh But I’m gonna try for the kingdom If I can - yeah ’cause it makes me feel like I’m a man When I put a spike into my vein And I tell you things aren’t quite The same It’s a mainline to my pain
Jesus died for somebody’s sins But not mine - heroin Jesus died for somebody’s sins (I can feel it) But not mine - heroin I said, jesus died for somebody’s sins But not mine - heroin
I have made a very big decision I gonna try to nullify my life - You know I get so low and then the smack flows I don’t care I’m gonna make it my wife Because when the blood begins to flow And shoots up the droppers neck And I’m closin’ in on death You can all go take a walk
And I guess that I just don’t know And I guess that I just don’t know
Jesus died for somebody’s sins But not mine - heroin Jesus died for somebody’s sins (I can feel it) But not mine - heroin I said, jesus died for somebody’s sins But not mine - heroin I said, jesus died for somebody’s sins But not mine - heroin not mine, Heroin, smack attack
Jesus died for somebody’s sins But not mine - heroin Jesus died for somebody’s sins But not mine - heroin Jesus died for somebody’s sins But not mine - heroin Jesus died for somebody’s sins But not mine - heroin Smack attack
Don’t touch that needle V.r. h e r o I n V.r. h e r o I n V.r. hell h e r o I n (forever) And I’m closin’ in on death H e r o I n
