B.D.D. (Brookie Don't Die) Songtext
von Brooks Buford

I lost it all, my brain, life, my balls for y′all
No more phone calls
I walk along the long halls
The long hauls
The alcohol stalls, the show
The strip-malls, the hos, the strippers and spit balls
And pit falls I done fell through
I went to hell for you
Probably end up in Bellevue or jail for you
That'll be two for two, headed for I.C.U. but

I laugh when I cry knowin′ love is a lie
I pray to the sky hopin' Brookie don't die
From the drugs and the hoes and the crack in the floors
The tears and the flows and the blood in the nose
In the land of the body blows anything goes
If Brookie don′t cry then Brookie don′t grow
Am I high? am I low? guess I really don't know
So save me


I bang my head again, woke up dead again
Off my medicine, ripped my cardigan
Made my bed of sin, played my card again, took my slaughterin′
Wrote it off and took one more daughter in
God don't like me but He loves me
And strikes and kills anyone that shoves me
You′re best to backtrack
Fell the backdraft when I write rough drafts

I laugh when I cry knowin' love is a lie
I pray to the sky hopin′ Brookie don't die
From the drugs and the hoes and the crack in the floors
The tears and the flows and the blood in the nose
In the land of the body blows anything goes
If Brookie don't cry then Brookie don′t grow
Am I high? am I low? guess I really don′t know
So save me

Got a chip on my shoulder the size of Boulder, Colorado, colder
Look in the mirror I'm gettin′ older El Dorado soldier
Off the off ramp, off the wagon and on to braggin'
You got a monkey on your back? I got a dragon!
I′m in mourning every morning
Hanging out with my dumbass should have a Surgeon General Warning
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Born too be wild and born too rust


Scream at Yoko, geeked on coco
I duck and truck 'cuz that dere bitch loco
Implode weekly, geeky freaky
Yes block me, mock me but cannot beat me
Sing the chorus against or for us
Love, adore us or watch the tour bus
Over your head, if you missed the boat
Well then it′s over your head
Yeah, it's over your head

I laugh when I cry knowin' love is a lie
I pray to the sky hopin′ Brookie don′t die
From the drugs and the hoes and the crack in the floors
The tears and the flows and the blood in the nose
In the land of the body blows anything goes
If Brookie don't cry then Brookie don′t grow
Am I high? am I low? guess I really don't know
So save me

I laugh when I cry knowin′ love is a lie
I pray to the sky hopin' Brookie don′t die
From the drugs and the hoes and the crack in the floors
The tears and the flows and the blood in the nose
In the land of the body blows anything goes
If Brookie don't cry then Brookie don't grow
Am I high? am I low? guess I really don′t know
So save me
