TestTubeBaby - What Did I Say?

I took the S.A.T.
I said I took the SAT test
High on L.S.D.
I said lysergic acid
Die-thyla-mide
I still got into uni
I said I still got into
Uni-versi-ty

I had a party
Housewarming party
After dropping LSD
And dropping university
I drank so much wine
And smoked so much weed
And I did a little blow
And didn't really know
What happened
After that
But my boyfriend later told me
I told everyone off

I sat out by the pool the next day
Reading Fahrenheit 451
I said Fahrenheit Four Hundred Fifty One
That I bought for 25 cents
From the Salvation Army
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
9, 10, 11, 12
13, 14, 15, 16, 17
18, 19, 20, 21
22, 23, 24
25 cents from
The Sal-vation Army

And my epistolary lover
I only loved him
When we were alone
Him and me
Both alone
And when we finally got together
I gave him crabs
And my brother got them too
Because we were in his bed

I made spaghetti
With spicy sauce
And I threw it against the walls
And on the ceiling
I didn't eat any of it
And then I cleaned it up

And when I got a cold
I laid in bed
Until I was feeling a little better
And then I went partying
Screaming out of cars
Climbing through construction sites
Smoking menthol cigarettes
I said smoking Benson and Hedges
Deluxe Ultra-light
Menthol 100 cigarettes
In a hard box

I walked in my torn up jeans
On Santa Monica Boulevard
Passing all the hustlers
At three a.m.
Then I visited my friend in the Hollywood Hills
In a little guest house
We watched porn
Filling our noses with cocaine
And talking about his father

And my friend's ex-boyfriend
Told me I'd be a real writer
Because I couldn't stop smoking
He said he was envious
Of my endless paradoxes
And asked if I could stop them for a moment
I couldn't
But he drew a heart in my palm
At the beach
With sun block
Anyway
I said he drew a heart in my palm
At the beach
With sun block
Before he walked away

And the sun shined down on me
It burned a hole through my head
I felt like Antonin Artaud
Because this
Is what I said
