[Verse]
Well, let me tell you darling
I've been high most of my life
And a dream is just a wish that a heart makes
I used to sell you, sell you, sell you
Only things you could find in a drugstore
People used to tell me, tell me, tell me
Just what kind of high they were looking for
Take a ride on a purple airplane
Honey, I don't know when I'll be back again (back again)
[Chorus]
'Cause I got broken bones
Not from the sticks and stones
But from the names that you call me
I got broken bones
Not from the sticks and stones
But from the names that you call me
Hey, you got the picture
Do you know what I mean?
I'm the fire, baby
And you're the gasoline
You like my characteristics
You like my stones
Call me all the names you say and break my bones
[Verse]
Well, let me tell you
I've been high most of my life
And a dream is just a wish that a heart makes
I used to sell you, sell you, sell you
Only things you could find in a drugstore
People used to tell me, tell me, tell me
Just what kind of high they were looking for
Take a ride on a purple airplane
Honey, I don't know when I'll be back again (back again)
[Chorus]
'Cause I got broken bones
Not from the sticks and stones
But from the names that you call me
I got broken bones
Not from the sticks and stones
But from the names that you call me
Hey, you got the picture
Do you know what I mean?
I'm the fire, baby
And you're the gasoline
You like my characteristics
You like my stones
Call me all the names you say and break my bones
[Verse]
Well, let me tell you darling
I've been high most of my life
And a dream is just a wish that a heart makes
I used to sell you, sell you, sell you
Only things you could find in a drugstore
People used to tell me, tell me, tell me
Just what kind of high they were looking for
Take a ride on a purple airplane
Honey, I don't know when I'll be back again (back again)
