Lyrics

My name is cocaine, call me coke for short
I entered this country without a passport
Ever since then I've made lots of scum rich
Some have been murdered and found in a ditch
I'm more valued than diamonds, more treasured than gold
Use me just once and you too will be sold
I'll make a schoolboy forget all his books
I'll make a beauty queen forget all her looks
I'll take renowned speaker and make a bore
I'll take a mother and make her a whore
My name is cocaine, cocaine
I'll make you rob,steal and kill
When you're under my power you'll have no will
I've destroyed actors and many a hero
I've decreased bank accounts from millions to zero
I'll make shooting and stabbing a common affair
Once I take charge you won't have a prayer
I'll make a school teacher not want to teach
I'll make a preacher not want to preach
I'll take your rent money and you'll get evicted
I'll murder your babies or they'll be born addicted
Now that you know what will you do?
You'll have to decide it's all up to you
The day you agree to sit in my saddle
The decision is one that no one can straddle
Listen to me and please listen well
When you ride with cocaine you're headed straight for hell
