SO WHAT'S THE BIG DEAL IF I DO A HIT OR TWO...ONCE IN A WHILE

My name is cocaine--call me coke for short.

I entered this country without a passport.

Ever since then I've made lots of scum rich.

Some have been murdered and found in a ditch.

I'm more valued than diamonds,more treasured than gold.

Use me just once and you too will be sold.

I'll make a school boy forget his books.

I'll make a beauty queen forget her looks.

I'll take a renowned speaker and make him a bore.

I'll take your mother and make her a whore.

I'll make a school teacher forget how to teach.

I'll make a preacher forget how to preach.

I'll take all your rent money and you'll be evicted.

I'll murder your babies or they'll be born addicted.

I'll make you rob,and steal, and kill.

When your under my power,you have no will.

I've destroyed actors,politicans and many a hero.

I"ve decreased bank accounts from millions to zero.

I make shooting and stabbing a common affair.

Once I take charge,you won't have a prayer.

Now that you know me,what will you do?

You'll have to deceide,it's all up to you.

The day you agree to sit in my saddle,

The decision is one that no one can straddle.

LISTEN TO ME AND PLEASE LISTEN WELL,

WHEN YOU RIDE WITH COCAINE YOU ARE HEADED FOR HELL!
