The Lyrics
A song about the acceptable face of drug addiction....
Quaaludes, to slow me down
And some Prozac to get me going
A bottle of Scotch to wash it all down
I'll hit the town just like a Boeing
Quaaludes to get me through
One more s**t day that I'll be battlin'
Some codiene, or Percocet for the pain
It's not the train, it's me that's rattlin'...
And anytime I'm feeling ill, I pop a pill
Don't call me an addict, it's prescription
Seems all I get is attitude from them and you
Just leave me alone and stop your b!tchin'..
Quaaludes from my GP
He's a good guy, so understandin'
Provides me the medications I mix
I'll get that fix that I'm demandin'
So I go out; a drinking spree- I'm offered E
Or charlie from dodgy backstreet dealer
But don't you know that stuff's bad news...it's drug abuse
I think that I'll have one more tequila..
Quaaludes are not so bad
Take a small pill and you'll feel better
I need them; stop telling me to withdraw
I'll take one more..the world's much better better better better better better ahhh!
Na na na na na na na, na na na na...Quaaludes!
And some Prozac to get me going
A bottle of Scotch to wash it all down
I'll hit the town just like a Boeing
Quaaludes to get me through
One more s**t day that I'll be battlin'
Some codiene, or Percocet for the pain
It's not the train, it's me that's rattlin'...
And anytime I'm feeling ill, I pop a pill
Don't call me an addict, it's prescription
Seems all I get is attitude from them and you
Just leave me alone and stop your b!tchin'..
Quaaludes from my GP
He's a good guy, so understandin'
Provides me the medications I mix
I'll get that fix that I'm demandin'
So I go out; a drinking spree- I'm offered E
Or charlie from dodgy backstreet dealer
But don't you know that stuff's bad news...it's drug abuse
I think that I'll have one more tequila..
Quaaludes are not so bad
Take a small pill and you'll feel better
I need them; stop telling me to withdraw
I'll take one more..the world's much better better better better better better ahhh!
Na na na na na na na, na na na na...Quaaludes!

ABC Q - Already voted for this one, still find it addictive, and the new Google adds are adds to the fun! :-)
Q05- Methaqualone (Quaaludes) has been schedule 1 in the US for a long time now, they still make these in the UK? Oxycontin is the new Quaalude here (Hillybilly heroin as the press likes to call it- nasty stuff). Anyway, great parody Kristof. 5s.
(ABC) See above!
I liked it, but i don' like those kind of drugs. Not that I have much experience with that, but I got tricked into taking tylenol with codeine ater I had a wisdom tooth pulled... didn't like it. I thought the third and fifth verses were the best, but what's Charlie?
Fantastic.
Well written, Kristof. I didn't realize how long you've been on the site. Glad you kept writing.
Wow guys what the f***, Charlie is cocaine, C in the military alphabet is Charlie hence the substitute, you wouldn't go up to a dealer at a bar and say, "Hey bro, got any cocaine?!" Loved the song bro.
