Been Smoking Too Long lyrics

Artist  : Nick Drake 
Song : Been Smoking Too Long
 

Well I wake up in the morning
Look at my clock
It`s way past noon time
Now I`m late for work.

Tell me, tell me
What have I done wrong?
Ain`t nothing go right with me
Must be I`ve been smoking too long.

Well I go to find me some breakfast
But I ain`t got no food
Take me a shower
But the water don`t feel no good.

Tell me...

I`ve got opium in my chimney
No other life to choose
Nightmare made of hash dreams.
Got the devil in my shoes

Tell me...

Well when I`m smoking
Put my worries on a shelf
Don`t think about nothin`
Try not to see myself.

Tell me...

Well in this blues I`m singin`
There`s a lesson to be learned
Don`t go around smokin`
Unless you want to get burned.

Tell me...
