From the recording Boneyard

Lyrics

VERSE1
Gather round- my friends I've got a tale to weave
'Bout a little plant an ancient herbal remedy
It's a gift from the Gods but its gotta real bad rap
I'm here to set the record straight and put an end to that

Now you know- marijuana is the plant I'm speaking of
It's a magical herb that just can't get no love
They lift their glasses while they keep on puttin' her downr
The kings of hypocrisy is what they should be crowned

They call it schedule 1 , the worst drug that there is
If that makes sense to you then a bubble is where you live
Yeah the war on drugs is a total waste of time
Puttin' people in jail for a victimless crime

Alcohol is legal but smokin weed is not
Liquor kills every day but no one dies from pot
The stoner doesn't beat his wife like his drunken friends
The worst he's gonna do is park a chair in front of your fridge


CHORUS
Yeah spark one up there aint no shame
Soothe your nerves and ease your pain
What I'm saying should be plain
Come on try my mary jane

VERSE2
So I`ll pick up my story, where I done left it last
My name is Lenny Mabee and I smoke a lot of grass
In an ocean of weed I wish I was a duck
I`d swim done to the bottom and I`d smoke my way up

So grab yer fav- ourite weed and yer sharpstone grinder
Your EZ Wider papers and yer best vapourizer
We gonna get stoned, don't care if it's allowed
We're gonna get high, make cheech & chong proud

BRIDGE
A friend with weed--- is a friend indeed---
