Lyrics
Whiskey bottle and brand-new car
Oak tree, you're in my way
There's too much coke and too much smoke
Look what's going on inside you
Ooh-ooh that smell
Can't ya smell that smell
Ooh-ooh that smell
The smell of death's around you
Yeah
Angel of darkness is upon you
Stuck a needle in your arm (Ya fool you)
So take another toke have a blow for your nose
One more drink fool would drown you (Hell yeah)
Ooh-ooh that smell
Can't ya smell that smell
Ooh-ooh that smell
The smell of death's around you
Now they call you Prince Charming
Can't speak a word when you're full of 'ludes
Say you'll be all right come tomorrow
But tomorrow might not be here for you (Yeah, you)
Ooh-ooh that smell
Can't you smell that smell
Ooh-ooh that smell
The smell of death's around you
Oh, you're a fool you
Don't stick them needles in your arm
Oh, I been here before
One little problem that confronts you
Gotta monkey on your back
Just one more fix Lord might do the trick
One helluva price for you to get your kicks (Hell yeah)
Ooh-ooh that smell
Can't ya smell that smell
Ooh-ooh that smell
The smell of death's around you
Ooh-ooh that smell
Can't ya smell that smell
Ooh-ooh that smell
The smell of death's around you
Oh, you're a fool you
Don't stick those needles in your arm
You're just a fool, just a fool, just a fool
Gimme one more blow
One more blow for my nose yeah
