King Heroin

[Intro]
(King heroin)
Put it down stop what you're doin', your life will be ruined
(King heroin)
It's a drug, use it, abuse it and you will bug
(King heroin)
Or it'll thrill ya, and chill ya, yes and then it'll kill ya
(King heroin)
So pay attention, listen to this and you'll learn you lesson

[Verse 1]
King heroin you know me
I was raised in the land called poppy seed
Well I'm known by all throughout the world
By men, boys, women, all ages and girls
I've been used and abused by yes all sorts
Running with the politicians, causing trouble for sports
'Cause you can use me once you'll do it again
And if not by yourself, then uh, with a friend
I'll have you sniffin', noddin', I'll mess with your mind
I'll make you do it, commit all sorts of crime
I'll make a full grown man sick of his wife
I'll send a greedy man to prison for the rest of his life
King heroin, you call me a drug
And yet you joke and smoke until you start to bug
I mean you spend all your money, you know you do
Because you want me, you haunt me, you know it's true
I come in nickles and dimes for the kids in schools
I come in fifties and hundreds for the bigger fools
'Cause I'm king!

[Chorus]
(Don't mess with heroin)
Just stop it!
(King, king heroin)
Ah, chick-a-uh, chick-ah-chick-a-uh-uh
(Don't mess with heroin)
Please stop it!
(King, king heroin)
It's no good!

[Verse 2]
Some call me bad but treat me good
I get you so much treated like a fool
It's a doggone shame how you stick it in your vein
It's a real live thrill when you pop the pill
I'll make a mother hate her daughter, make a father beat his son
Make them treat their child wild 'cause I'm number one
Well I'm the reason, the cause, why you do wrong
I can turn you off and turn you on
I'm not a man, not a woman, I'm just a thing
But I rule your world 'cause I'm the king
Well you could call me speed or call me blow
Ask me to get you high, I'll never say no
I love pushers, addicts, all my users
'Cause one by one I turn 'em into losers
Hey I'm king-king heroin, I'm gonna get you high before I end, my friend

[Chorus]
(Don't mess with heroin)
Just stop it!
(King, king heroin)
No, no, no!
(Don't mess with heroin)
Please stop it!
(King, king heroin)

[Verse 3]
Well you better listen good 'cause I'm no joke
I was there when Richard Pryor went up in smoke
Well I warned him once but he didn't learn
I got a kick out of causing a grown man to burn
So now don't you laugh 'cause you ain't slick
Admit it, I'm a habit you just can't quit
'Cause I could be your best friend, I could be your enemy
This girl want blow, that boy want speed
Yes I love one and I love all
'Cause when you wanna get high it's drugs you call
Now some people I help, some people I hurt
Inside every one of you is nothin' but a jerk
'Cause all I do is mess with your brain
Make you dependent, drive you insane
But you don't care 'cause you think it's cool
Playin' with the king like a doggone fool
Don't try to go straight 'cause it's too late
Face it, you're hooked, your life I took
Don't plead to the lord, there's nothin' he'll do
About the speed, the blow, the ones sniffin' glue
This goes for the addicts, the ones with the habits
Don't pray, just nod, heroin is your god!

[Chorus]
(Don't mess with heroin)
Just stop it!
(King, king heroin)
Shoop, the bop, shoop-a-doop bop-bop
(Don't mess with heroin)
Now stop it!
(King, king heroin)
It's no good

[Outro]
(Don't mess with heroin)
You better leave me alone while you still can
Unless your ears are deaf and don't understand
(King, king heroin)
What I'm sayin' to you, God knows it's true
And if you just can't stop your life is through
(Don't mess with heroin)
Please stop it!
(King, king heroin)
You don't want your life to end so tell your friends about heroin
Just stop it!
(King, king heroin)
To everybody all around the world
(Don't mess with heroin)
Just stop it!
Let's fight to stop King Heroin
(King, king heroin)
And don't you dare stop until you win
(Don't mess with heroin)
Just stop it!
(King, king heroin)
It's a drug that will make you bug, so
(Don't mess with heroin)
