Lyrics No LSD Tonight - Jeffrey Lewis

No LSD Tonight

Some strange things happened i’ll have you know
(Hey you’re Jeff Lewis, you like acid, right?)
Some people hear my acid song and seem to take it kind of wrong
(Yeah, you’re Jeff Lewis. You’re the guy that likes acid)
Well making druggy mentions has got the druggies attention
But getting you to give me some is not my intention
We don’t want no LSD tonight
I played a show in Chapel Hill some dude dressed like a daffodil came backstage
(Hey you want some acid? I got some decent acid)
I played a show in Williamsburgh some dude dressed like a giant bird came
backstage
(Yeah, i got some decent acid, you looking?)
We got a lot stuff to do and a long way to drive
Thank you for the offer man, maybe some other time
We don’t want no LSD tonight
Well being drunk is fun i guess but being stoned makes me depressed
I can’t do it
(The last time i did acid i went insane, it was awesome!)
I did try ecstasy one time and one time i drank some codeine cough syrup
(Hey i thought you were into psychedelic music, man)
But i’m just a tender thing i can’t handle too much stress
I start to fall apart after a couple of cigarettes
So we don’t want to LSD tonight
But everybody says
Don’t you panic, don’t you panic
Give it one more try
Don’t you panic, don’t you panic
Give it one more try
Don’t you panic, don’t you panic
Give it one more try
But did you hear that song i played about the time i went insane?
I hate acid
(Oh yeah, that was a good song, man. Do you know where i can get some acid?)
I played it till my fingers bled you didn’t listen to a word i said, i guess
(Yeah, that was a funny song. You want some acid?)
It made me moan it made me groan it made me lose my mind
I do not like that stuff my friend and so i must decline
I do not want a little drop, i do not want a gallon
Did you see those words right on the cover of my album?
I know it can be cool and fun i’m just a bad example
So just to set the record straight i’ve got to say it simple:
We don’t want no LSD tonight
(I think in the right environment you’d be fine.)
No
But everybody says
Don’t you panic, don’t you panic
Give it one more try
Don’t you panic, don’t you panic
Give it one more try
Don’t you panic, don’t you panic
Give it one more try
No, not for me
Thanks but no thanks
