MARY -J

Oh, Mary J; My Mary J,
You fill my heart with peace
Your saving grace’s my parachute;
You make my worries seize

Oh, Mary J; My Mary J,
Oh, how you bridge my mind
Your silver puffs, like tiny sheep
And the epiphanies they unwind

I called your friend the sugar-man;
He told me you’re not there.
The tambourine man sighed in vain
Then said I might find you at the fair

The Pied Piper, that dreaded Viper
He just handed me a smiley face
He claimed he knew no Mary J
So, with acid it was laced

Oh, Mary J; My Mary J,
Please just tell me why;
I can only fathom thunder clouds
When your magic dies?

Oh, Mary J; My Mary J,
Time does pass me by
I’ve searched for in valleys deep
And on mountains high

I have searched in caves and pyramids
Where scarabs do reside
I didn’t find you on the top
And neither deep inside

Now I close my eyes, and fall asleep
As I dream of better days
Then as I woke; ‘tis not a joke
I saw your purple haze

You were never lost, I apologize
The fault resides in me
Because the last time that I cleaned my spliff
I planted seeds you see

I can’t believe, that I’d forget
My memory is shot to sh!t
So puff puff pass, you’re home at last
And I’m waiting for my hit
