I was dressing my daughter once and couldnt find the hood on her jumper. And I went “Where the hood where the hood where the hood at… I dont want you repeating a single other line from this song ever”
Had to take a quick listen and, holy shit, there is what may be the most wholesome comment thread on YouTube on this song about addiction. What a crazy world.
Undoubtedly the most family friendly song about meth though
Our middle school chorus teacher printed out the lyrics to this song, thinking it was a cute pop song we could all learn easily to pad out a recital, since it was still on the radio all the time.
She was a really innocent lady, and a recent imigrant from Bulgaria, and I can only assume didnt know a lot of the euphemisms, like going down on someone.
We took turns pointing out different inappropriate lines, and I remember reading out loud, “then I bumped up, i took the hit that I was given, then I bumped again, then i bumped again, and I said ‘how do I get back to the place where I fell asleep inside you?’”
And explaining, so hes just snorted a line and 3 small ones, and now hes reminiscing about sex- how the fuck did this ever get onto the radio?"
Funny enough, I remember us talking about the crystal meth line, and most of us thinking it wasnt that big a deal, because 1/3 of our class was on adderal, and its basically the same thing, right? (We were all 13, so) at least its not cocaine!
What song is this? 😮
BTW I’ve had similar experiences but since the kids around here don’t speak English it’s not much of a problem.
“Semi-Charmed Life” by Third Eye Blind
Sorry for the potato quality; it’s a very old commercial
i like how the black-orange cat seems to be moon-walking :)
The original lyrics for the chorus were changed because the song was too much of a downer. “I want nothing else. To get me through this, semi charmed kinda life.”
Reminded me of this:
