Sunday morning "druggie" songs

[RJB]

I'm generally more of a headbanger, but this song seemed the most fitting for the thread and my current mood.

I'm surprised this hasn't been posted. It's the first song I think of when I see the thread title.

Over Bridges of Sighs
To rest my eyes in shades of green
Under Dreaming Spires
To Itchycoo Park, that's where I've been

What did you do there? I got high
What did you feel there? Well I cried
But why the tears there? I'll tell you why
It's all too beautiful, it's all too beautiful
It's all too beautiful, it's all too beautiful

I feel inclined to blow my mind
Get hung up, feed the ducks with a bun
They all come out to groove about
Be nice and have fun in the sun

I'll tell you what I'll do, what will you do?
I'd like to go there now with you
You can miss out school, won't that be cool
Why go to learn the words of fools?

What will we do there? We'll get high
What will we touch there? We'll touch the sky
But why the tears there? I'll tell you why
It's all too beautiful, it's all too beautiful
It's all too beautiful, it's all too beautiful

I feel inclined to blow my mind
Get hung up, feed the ducks with a bun
They all come out to groove about
Be nice and have fun in the sun

[Occam's Banana]

Strictly speaking, this isn't a "druggie" song - it's actually about heracleum mantegazzianum (aka "giant hogweed" or "giant cow parsley").

But it could be taken as a sarcastically "anti-druggie" song, given the hysteria we've seen recently over marijuana ...

Genesis - The Return of the Giant Hogweed
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gTuJQL8GBqY



Turn and run! Nothing can stop them.
Around every river and canal their power is growing.
Stamp them out! We must destroy them.
They infiltrate each city with their thick dark warning odour.

They are invincible.
They seem immune to all our herbicidal battering.

Long ago in the Russian hills a Victorian explorer found
The regal hogweed by a marsh. He captured it and brought it home.

Botanical creature stirs, seeking revenge.
The royal beast did not forget.
He came home to London
And made a present of the hogweed
To the royal gardens at Kew.

Waste no time! They are approaching.
Hurry now, we must protect ourselves and find some shelter
Strike by night! They are defenseless.
They all need the sun to photosensitize their venom.

Still they're invincible.
Still they're immune to all our herbicidal battering.

Fashionable country gentlemen had some cultivated wild gardens
In which they innocently planted the giant hogweed throughout the land.

Botanical creature stirs, seeking revenge.
The royal beast did not forget.
Soon they escaped, spreading,
Their seed preparing for an onslaught,
Threatening the human race.

[instrumental: The Dance of the Giant Hogweed]

Mighty hogweed is avenged.
Human bodies soon will burn.
Kill them with your hogweed hairs.
Heracleum mantegazziani
