The single from the 1978 movie’s soundtrack with the same name, “Up In Smoke” describes the typical life of a stoner (someone who seeks “safe” haven from life’s demons in drug addictions, especially marijuana). When life strikes down, just roll a joint and stop giving a fuck.
[Chong]
Up in smoke
That's where my money goes
In my lungs
And sometimes up my nose
When troubled times
Begin to bother me
I take a toke
And all my cares
Go up in smoke
[Cheech]
Up in smoke
Donde todos es libre
There are no signs
Que dice no fumer
So I roll un "bomber"
Y me doy, un buen toke-ay
Y despues I choke
Y todos mis cares
Go up in smoke
Come on let's go get high
[Cast]
Up in smoke
That's where I wanna be
Cause when I'm high
The world below
Don't bother me
When life begins
To be one long
And dangerous road
I take a toke
And all my cares
Go up in smoke
Up in Smoke was written by Cheech & Chong.
Up in Smoke was produced by Lou Adler.
