Cocaine

(album: My Old Heart - 2019)

She's a Brooklyn punk rocker, he's a Jersey meathead
Nothing in common, it won't last, they said
He doesn't much like her, she thinks he's a jerk
What keeps them together? What makes it work?

They both love cocaine, but only from midnight 'til 9
Really love that cocaine, they're writing their fairy tale line after line after line

He gets to chopping', she grabs the straws
Now they're both wired and grinding their jaws
They pace and they chainsmoke and ash in a cup
They got nothing to say but won't shut the fuck up

Because of sweet, sweet cocaine to help them get over the hump
Really need me cocaine, their love ain't no smooth ride it's bump after bump after bump

They're sweating and fighting, the morning sun's lurking
They tried having sex but his dick isn't working
The coke makes her edgy, and he's getting vicious
They both want to stop, but it smells so delicious

Cocaine (cocaine)
Cocaine
Cocaine (cocaine)
Cocaine
