I'm gonna say Andy's Chest, from Lou Reed's Transformer

Brilliant album imo, but sample the lyrics:


If I could be anything in the world that flew
I would be a bat and come swooping after you
And if the last time you were here things were a bit askew

Well you know what happens after dark
When rattlesnakes lose their skins and their hearts
And all the missionaries lose their bark
Oh, all the trees are calling after you
And all the venom snipers after you
Are all the mountains bolder after you?

If I could be anyone of the things in this world that bite
Instead of an ocelot on a leash, I'd rather be a kite
And be tied to the end of your string
And flying in the air, babe, at night
Cause ou know what they say about honey bears
When you shave off all their baby hair
You have a hairy minded pink bare bear

And all the balls are rolling out for you
And stones are all erupting out for you
And all the cheap bloodsuckers are flying after you

Yesterday, Daisy Mae and Biff were grooving on the street
And just like in a movie, her hands became her feet
Her belly button was her mouth
Wich meant she tasted what she'd speak

But the funny thing is what happened to her nose
It grew until it reached all of her toes
Now when people say her feet they mean her nose

And curtains laced with diamonds dear for you
And all the Roman Noblemen for you
And kingdom's Christian Soldiers dear for you
And melting ice cap mountain tops for you
And knights in flamming silver robes for you
And bats that with a kiss turn prince for you
Swoop, Swoop
oh baby,
Rock Rock
Swoop, Swoop, Rock, Rock

Sweatloaf by the Butthole Surfers is pretty f'd up. It, as some of you Metalheads may suspect, is plagiarized from Black Sabbaths 'Sweet Leaf'.

Instead of Sabbath condoning their love of pot, the Butthole Surfers were proclaiming their love for .... I dunno .... crystal meth cooked down in codeine-laced cough syrup or something like that.

Saw them years ago (totally sober) and came out of the concert feeling completely stoned out of my mind. OK, there was plenty of second hand smoke, but not enough to send me into deep hallucinations.

Awesome/ridiculous, all at the same time...

Merry, merry king of the bush is he
Laugh kookaburra, laugh
Kookaburra, gay your life must be

Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree
Eating all the gumdrops that he can see
Stop, kookaburra, stop
Kookaburra, leave some there for me

Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree
Chasing all the monkeys he can see
Stop, kookaburra, stop
Kookaburra, that's not a monkey, that's me!

Taking Drugs to Make Music to Take Drugs To
Spiritualized, "Royal Albert Hall October 10 1997", is the one that sprung to my mind. They just ooze of drugs, omnivorous and promiscuous... Other bands may be more closely associate with particular drugs (the Dead & acid, the NY Dolls & speed, "Exile on Main Street" & herion...) Spiritualized ain't particular.

http://image.allmusic.com/00/amg/cov200/drd400/d466/d466507se65.jpg

"Drugs" never struck me as the answer to that particular question... But thanks for the reminder! My personal fave is from "Doc at the Radar Station":

The shiny beast of thought
If you got ears
You gotta listen
Old woman sweat
Young girls glisten
The extra act you thought
is the extract you got

Hop in a thought
Ex-extract
D'you hear me?
Hope disa-heart drops
Blue she right/wrote
Drop by drop
Light by bright
Night by light
There ain't no good
'n' there ain't no blame
Not hip
Ain't no aim
You make the fault
You cause the blame
Devil the same

Hop in a thought
Ex-extract
Shiny beast of thought
You hang up
Now you' caught
If you got ears
You gotta listen
Old woman sweat
Young girls glisten
There's more than what you thought

Hop in a thought
The shiny beast of thought
Stand there bubblin' like an oven coal in the sun
Back is achin'
Work is never done
She's swinging a sponge on the end of a string
Right on the brink
She spills the ink down the sink
She's not bad
She's just genetically mean
She's not bad
She's just genetically mean
Don't you wish you never met her?
Don't you wish you never met her?
Don't you wish you never met her?
Dirty Blue Gene

She's swinging a sponge on the end of a string
Don't you wish you never met her?
Don't you wish you never met her?

+ infinity. If this was the only song Husker Du had ever recorded, they would have been on my all-timer list.

Their ability to make music that was simultaneously gorgeous and brutal was something else... "New Day Rising", for example.

http://image.allmusic.com/00/amg/cov200/drf300/f341/f34114ma6lq.jpg

To bring this back to the thread - The Huskers were (one of many) that drugs destroyed. Their best music is an attempt to find meaning in the everyday, not drugs, atmo.

Here I lie in my hospital bed
Tell me, Sister Morphine, when are you coming round again?
Oh, I don't think I can wait that long
Oh, you see that I'm not that strong

The scream of the ambulance is sounding in my ears
Tell me, Sister Morphine, how long have I been lying here?
What am I doing in this place?
Why does the doctor have no face?
Oh, I can't crawl across the floor
Ah, can't you see, Sister Morphine, I'm trying to score

Well it just goes to show
Things are not what they seem
Please, Sister Morphine, turn my nightmares into dreams
Oh, can't you see I'm fading fast?
And that this shot will be my last

Sweet Cousin Cocaine, lay your cool cool hand on my head
Ah, come on, Sister Morphine, you better make up my bed
'Cause you know and I know in the morning I'll be dead
Yeah, and you can sit around, yeah and you can watch all the

I'm sorry, but I have to say that while you all have good suggestions, you're all playing for second best.

This is one album that you cannot, under any circumstances, without question, undeniably, absolutely, repeat cannot listen to in its entirety without the aid of mind-altering substances.

Rolling Stone called it "ear-wrecking electronic sludge."

If you had an 8-track tape of this album, it played endlessly. We left a lot of good men back there (in 1975) because of this album.

The "special edition" is available now on CD. Someone has a sense of humor.

Since I turned one year old the day Jimi died, I feel that I have a special connection with him.

I second that for great live peformances - I have a great CD that has him playing with jim Morrison (who I think is an idiot). It is called 'Live at the Scene Club - New York 1968'.

It is your typical live wall of feedback, but punctuated by Morrison's drunken rambling, using more filthy expletives than even I could manage. Hendrix is trying to help him get going but ends up cutting him off because ye other Jim just sucks so badly.

So true - the remaining hour is a deafening jam session with Johnny Winter, Mitch and Noel that would make any Hendrix fan weep.

All those lights were t-t-twinkling on Sunset, I saw a sign in the sky
It said, "T-t-t-trip a t-trip, I trip, trip,"
I couldn't keep up up if I tried.
Ah, we stepped down to reality company
To get some instant sleep
And the driver turned, I said, "Welcome back"
He smiled and he said, "Beep beep".

An' my belly is craving, I got shakin' in my head
I feel like I'm dyin' an' I wish I were dead
If I lived till tomorrow it's gonna be a long time
For I'll reel and I'll fall and rise on codine
An' it's real, an' it's real, one more time

When I was a young man I learned not to care
Wild whiskey, confronted I often did swear
My mother and father said whiskey is a curse
But the fate of their baby is many times worse
An' it's real, an' it's real, one more time

You'll forget your woman, you'll forget about man
Try it just once, an' you'll try it again
It's sometimes you wonder and it's sometimes you think
That I'm a-living my life with abandon to drink
An' it's real, an' it's real, one more time

Stay away from the cities, stay away from the towns
Stay away from the men pushin' the codine around
Stay away from the stores where the remedy is found
I will live a few days as a slave to codine
An' it's real, an' it's real, one more time

An' my belly is craving, I've got a shakin' in my head
An' I've started heating whether my body said
Steady yourself with the grains of cocaine
An' you'll end dead or you'll end up insane
An' it's real, an' it's real, one more time

An' my belly is craving, I got shaking in my head
I feel like I'm dyin' an' I wish I were dead
If I lived till tomorrow it's gonna be a long time
For I'll reel and I'll fall and rise on codine
An' it's real, an' it's real, one more time
An' it's real, an' it's real, one more time

The blue bus is callin us
Driver, where you taken us

The killer awoke before dawn, he put his boots on
He took a face from the ancient gallery
And he walked on down the hall
He went into the room where his sister lived, and...then he
Paid a visit to his brother, and then he
He walked on down the hall, and
And he came to a door...and he looked inside
Father, yes son, I want to kill you
Mother...i want to...f*** you

Cmon baby, take a chance with us
Cmon baby, take a chance with us
Cmon baby, take a chance with us
And meet me at the back of the blue bus
Doin a blue rock
On a blue bus
Doin a blue rock
Cmon, yeah

Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill

This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend, the end

It hurts to set you free
But youll never follow me
The end of laughter and soft lies
The end of nights we tried to die

This is the end

I don't know if they were using drugs or not but Earnie Isley's strat on that lady and climbing the ladder has a tone that always makes me feel good. I spent a small fortune trying to duplicate it and never could. Always brings a smile to my face.

What about Johnny Thunders' Heartbreakers "LAMF;" their best-known song was about scoring junk! Thunders and Jerry Nolan could have dang near supported a poppy farm in their lives. Then there's "Oar" by Skip Spence, but it's been said that he went OFF his meds to record it!

The End by the Doors is great, but I also like When The Music's Over, listen to the scream of the butterfly yo. Another great drug band is The Flaming Lips, I'm a little suprised they've yet to have been mentioned, c'mon guys, drugs didn't end in the 90's...Johnny Cash was also forgotton.

-The Misfits
-Old Crow Medicine Show has alot of cocain refference, though I believe they're clean...
-Willie Nelson
-Ben Harper
-Coughee Brothaz if you're into rap

Rolling Stones-Sticky Fingers
Doors-Strange Days
Floyd-Dark Side Of The Moon
Hendrix-Are You Experienced?
The most blatant drug song I think would be "Cocaine" as done by Jackson Browne from Running On Empty, I believe. Jeff N.

I thought Danzig et al. were just about pumpin' iron, drinkin' cheap beer, howlin' at the moon, etc. yea dude, The Misfits smoked pot on stage on more than one occassion, which really pales in comparison to most of the aformentioned artists, but is worth an honorable mention. Plus, they get the spirit award because of their outfits.
