Toothpick

A toothpick is a small thin stick of wood, plastic, bamboo, metal, bone or other substance with at least one and sometimes two sharp ends to insert between teeth to remove detritus, usually after a meal. Toothpicks are also used for festive occasions to hold or spear small appetizers (like cheese cubes or olives) or as a cocktail stick, and can be decorated with plastic frills or small paper umbrellas or flags. more »

The High Life

I remember when I lived for candy and cartoons 
I also remember the first time I ate shrooms 
It was me, little John, Chris Vergera, and Joe 
We all ate an eighth at a Grateful Dead show 
Joe told me in slow motion it feels so good 
Then he turned into Peter Pan and ran into the woods 
I found a VW bus with the keys inside 
And I could see just enough to take it for a joy ride 
I started in New York, ended up in LA 
Thought it took ten minutes but it took ten days 
I stayed for two weeks made love with two freaks 
When they found out I was seventeen they made me leave 

That's the high life I got no regrets 
I do fucked up shit get high and forget 
It's so out of control it's all disrespect 
I might say sorry then I do it again 

Well I used to steel lollipops, candy and gum 
Sold 'em two for fifty cents in the back of the bus 
I was an entrepreneur went from Blow Pops to blow 
To t-shirts with Nancy Reagan saying "just say no" 
Plus picture me cutting your grass in army fatigues 
Choppin' down trees 'til someone pays me to leave 
Then I show up at your house drunk on a lawn mower 
Honk the horn and tell your mom its cool to be sober 
I dare you to keep kid off drugs 'cause life sucks 
When you're in the suburbs with a backwards hat driving a truck 
And the smart kids go to college to change the world 
Then all they want to do is come home and f*ck high school girls 

That's the high life I got no regrets 
I do fucked up shit get high and forget 
It's so out of control it's all disrespect 
I might say sorry then I do it again 

It go: 
Throw the little ticket in the back of the drawer 
Tell the judge don't pay me no mind 
Throw the little pink ticket in the back of the drawer 
'Cause I'll be out in six days with a fine 

Well I realized when I get high I don't make any progress 
I quit smokin' for six days and I wanted to run for Congress 
To advance legislation 
For the legalization 
Of marijuana but I got stoned and lost my motivation 
It's the same sad story every time I apply for a job 
A piss test to see if I get high 
Well I do so I'm stuck in this sorry as town 
Where white kids trick out Hondas and drive around 
And everyone I know wants to be Eminem 
I just want to do my own shit and be his best friend 
But years of substance abuse got me lost and confussed 
I see my toes through my shoes now I'm singing the blues 

That's the high life now its all regret 
I did fucked up shit now I'll never forget 
I was out of control I had no respect 
Now I'm sorry and I swear I'll never do it again 
That's the high life
