Heroin Lyrics - John Frusciante

Oh Heroin, heroin 

And cocaine, cocaine 

Well I loved them both 

But they took my life, they took my friends 

They won't give em back, but I want em back 

Oh give em back now 

And what has it got me 

Just some teeth I can't chew 

my favourite cereal with 

Oh being cool, and looking good 

Keith Richards and Lenny Bruce 

And all of them, well I give up 

Sometimes I get sad, or I'll get mad 

About where I should be, and where I am 

Don't wanna go back 

And where has it got me 

Thirty-five years old now 

Washing dishes in a restaurant 

Well my friend Robert,well he can't stop 

His teeth are falling out 

And he's living at his mom's, and its no fun 

I guess I'm lucky I'm alive, yea I'm lucky I'm alive 

Coz I should be dead, well I have been dead 

But I'm not now, no 

But what has it got me 

Just some teeth I can't chew 

my favourite cereal with 

Yea where has it got me 

Thirty-five years old now 

Working in a fucking restaurant 

Oh Heroin, heroin 

And cocaine, cocaine 

Well I loved them both
