Whiskey bottle and brand new cars,
Oak tree, you’re in my way.
There’s too much Coke and too much smoke.
Look what’s goin’ on inside you.
Oo-oo that smell,
can’t you smell that smell?
Oo-oo that smell,
the smell of death’s around you.
Angel of darkness is upon you,
Stuck a needle in your arm.
So take another toke, have a blow for your nose.
One more drink, fool, will drown you.
Oo-oo that smell,
can’t you smell that smell?
Oo-oo that smell,
the smell of death’s around you.
Now they call you Prince Charming,
Can’t speak a word when you’re full of ludes.
Say you’ll be alright, come tomorrow
But tomorrow might not be here for you.
Oo-oo that smell,
can’t you smell that smell?
Oo-oo that smell,
the smell of death’s around you.
One little problem that confronts you,
Got a monkey on your back.
Just one more fix, Lord, might do the trick.
One hell of a price for you to get your kicks.
Oo-oo that smell,
can’t you smell that smell?
Oo-oo that smell,
the smell of death’s around you.
Oo-oo that smell,
can’t you smell that smell?
Oo-oo that smell,
the smell of death’s around you.
