Because I Got High (Palmdale session) Songtext
von Afroman

I was gonna clean my room,
Until I got high
I was gonna get up and find the broom,
But then I got high
My room is still messed up
And I know why, (why man?)

′Cuz I got high
Because I got high
Because I got high

I was gonna go to class,
Before I got high
I coulda' cheated and I coulda passed,
But I got high
I′m taking it next semester
And I know why (why man?)
'Cuz I got high
Because I got high
Because I got high


I was gonna go to court,
Before I got high
I was gonna pay my child support,
But then I got high (No, you weren't)
They took my whole pay check,
And I know why, (why man?)
′Cuz I got high
Because I got high
Because I got high

I wasn′t gonna run from the cops
But I was high, (I'm serious, man)
I was gonna pull right over and stop,
But I was high
Now I′m a paraplegic,
And I know why (why, man?)
'Cuz I got high
Because I got high
Because I got high

I was gonna make love to you,
But then I got high, I′m serious
I was gonna eat your pussy too,
But then I got high
Now I'm jacking off and I know why,
′Cuz I got high,
Because I got high,
Because I got high


I messed up my entire life,
Because I got high
I lost my kids and wife,
Because I got high
Now I'm sleeping on the sidewalk,
And I know why, (why man?)
'Cuz I got high,
Because I got high,
Because I got high

I′m gonna stop singing this song,
Because I′m high
I'm singing this whole thing wrong,
Because I′m high
And if I don't sell one copy
I′ll know why, (why man?)
'Cuz I′m high
Because I'm high,
Because I'm high
