    I want a new drug
    One that won't make me sick
    One that won't make me crash my car
    Or make me feel three feet thick

    I want a new drug
    One that won't hurt my head
    One that won't make my mouth too dry
    Or make my eyes too red

    I want a new drug
    One that won't spill
    One that don't cost too much
    Or come in a pill

    I want a new drug
    One that won't go away
    One that won't keep me up all night
    One that won't make me sleep all day

    I want a new drug
    One that does what it should
    One that won't make me feel too bad
    One that won't make me feel too good

    I want a new drug
    One with no doubt
    One that won't make me talk too much
    Or make my face break out

    This thread has more posts than just about any other non-Pearl Jam music thread that doesn't involve Chris Cornell. :clap: How crazy is that.

    These guys were my first concert. My dad took me. I can't remember exactly when it was, but I was about 11 or 12 at the time.
    "I try my best to chug, stomp, weep, whisper, moan, wheeze, scat, blurt, rage, whine, and seduce. With my voice I can sound like a girl, the boogieman, a Theremin, a cherry bomb, a clown, a doctor, a murderer. I can be tribal. Ironic. Or disturbed. My voice is really my instrument."

    -Tom Waits
