james chance and the contortions - king heroin lyrics

i came to this country without a passport
and ever since then i’ve been hunted and sought
my little white grains are just nothin’ but waste
soft, deadly and bitter to taste

but i’m a world of power and all know that it’s true
baby use me just once and you’re gonna know it too
i can make a mere schoolboy forget his books
make a world famous beauty neglect her looks

take that … nice sweet young thing
turn her out and make her into an old hag
send her down to lexington avenue
for the price of a bag

i can make a world famous h+rn man
forget his last l!ck
sell his axe to a jew for the price of a fix
some think that my invention is a joy and a thrill
but baby i’m gonna put a gun in your hand
and i’m gonna make you k!ll
so be you white, jewish or black or brown or mex
i can make the most virile of men forget their s+x
please, please … well fellas
you know i can’t take no more
but baby i’m shakin’
you know i’m breakin’
i can’t take one more minute
cos baby, my heart just ain’t in it
its too much … please

so now my man, you must do your best
to keep up your habit until your arrest
but now the police have taken you from under my wing
but do you think they dare defy me?
i who am king

so squirm, with discomfort, baby wriggle and cough
six days of madness, and baby you might throw me off
i can hear you curse me in name
don’t you think i know you defy me in speech
but baby you know as well as me
that you’d pick me up right now
if i was only in your reach

all through your sentence you’ve become resolved to your fate
but fear not young man or young woman
cause baby, you know i’m gonna be waitin’ at the gate
so please please don’t you be afraid
cos baby you know i’m not chaste
sure my name is heroin
and i know your gonna come back to me
your gonna come back to me for a taste
