White Punks On Dope Lyrics
[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Teenage, had a race for the nighttime
Spent my cash on every high I could find
Wasted time in every school in L.A
Gettin' loose, I didn't care what the kids say
[Chorus]
We're white punks on dope
Mom and Dad moved to Hollywood
Hang myself when I get enough rope
Can't clean up, though I know I should
White punks on dope
(White punks on dope)
White punks on dope, woah!
(White punks on dope)
[Verse 2]
Other dudes are livin' in the ghetto
But born in Pacific Heights
Don't seem much betto
[Chorus]
We're white punks on dope
Mom and Dad live in Hollywood
Hang myself when I get enough rope
I can't clean up, though I know I should
White punks on dope
(White punks on dope)
White punks on dope, yeah!
(White punks on dope)
[Verse 3]
I go crazy 'cause my folks are so fuckin' rich
Have to score when I get that rich white punk itch
Sounds real classy, livin' in a chateau
So lonely, all the other kids will never know
[Chorus]
We're white punks on dope
Mom and Dad live in Hollywood
Hang myself when I get enough rope
I can't clean up, though I know I should
[Bridge]
White punks on dope
White punks on dope
White punks on dope
White punks on dope, ah!
White punks on dope
White punks on dope
White punks on dope
White punks on dope
White punks on dope
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Bridge]
White punks on dope
White punks on dope
White punks on dope, Jesus
White punks on dope, punks on dope
White punks on dope, thank you, Jesus
White punks on dope, ah!
It doesn't pay all day
White punks on dope
Why'd you get it?
White punks on dope
White punks on dope
White punks on dope, ah!
White punks on dope
White punks on dope!
[Interlude]
White punks on dope!
I get walls! Kickin' walls!
White punks!
White punks on dope
White punks!
White punks on dope
I can't feel a thing!
Wah!
[Outro]
White punks on dope
White punks on dope
White punks on dope, ah!
White punks on dope!
White punks on dope!
White punks on dope!
White punks on dope
Better listen to me
White punks on dope
White punks on dope
White punks on dope
Just take a look at me!
White punks on dope
I'm fucked up!
White punks on dope
White punks on dope
White punks on
