Opium
author: Jump Little Children
"Do you smoke opium?" he said
As he opened my wallet on the street
I said, please god please
Can you breathe just a little softer?
It's hard enough to stand up straight
Cause i'm beat
Don't call your girlfriend on the phone
There's lots of other numbers you can use
Get this dial tone off me
Let's go out and get some coffee
Caffeine will make you less and less confused
(Thats what you need
believe me when i tell you)
I didn't want to be Chinese
I just ended up in this part of town
I'm an entertainer
And i will try to make you saner
Please turn your frown upside down
Here, take a look upon my face
Its dark, I know you can't see at all
But try and take some notice
And least try and focus
Or else youre going to stumble or even fall
Chorus:
And there's one man coming from the south land
just off the new fix, the sleeve tricks
Strike it up if Judah sticks
The brass band holds hands
right across the new land
And have an ancient pay your rent
At least conceal your identity
Cause it's cheaper when it's free
The warble in the purple and
The bubble's in trouble again
So I heard there was a murder just upstairs
I saw the graffiti on the van
The tears on her cheek
They were as clean as a squeak
A crack in the window and they ran
Please let me hold you by the belt
The fall is at least three stories down
It's easier I swear
Comb your teeth and brush your hair
A few flights of steps and were into town
"do you smoke opium?" he said
As he offered the back seat of a cab
If you have no quid
Then don't you even make a bid
don't you worry I'll just put it on your tab
The yellow of the hood began to roar
And the seat became soft or so it seemed
Just press it to your skin and
Let the fun begin
And the music in your throat will make you scream
Chorus:
And theres one man coming from the southland....
You dont know me but I'm famous
You might even like me, given a chance
Im nervous and im shaking
Im toasted and im still baking
From this drug that gives this evening such romance
"Do you smoke opium?" he said
As we walked into the early morning grey
With my hand upon his sleeve
Before i took my leave
I said "no, and now i'll be on my way"
Chorus 2X

Now, with "Camp Rock" on her résumé, a Jonas tour under her belt and Don't Forget out in stores, she says that she wants to follow the path of another Disney star, Lizzie McGuire herself, Hilary Duff. "[She] has stayed a really good role model,'' Lovato said. ''I mean, I'm sure she made mistakes, but you never saw them. I think it's really cool that someone can grow up and continue to be looked up to by young girls.''
