I don't wanna feel happy
But I don't care if I feel sad
I just wanna be
I just wanna b
I just wanna b-b
I just
I j-
I just
I just wanna be
I just wanna be
I just wanna be
I just wanna be
Stoned, stoned, stoned, stoned
For the rest of ...
For the rest of my natural life
Because when I'm stoned
Everything I do seems to t-t-t-turn out right
That's how I do it
I don't wanna be good
But I don't care if I'm bad
I don't wanna feel happy
I don't wanna feel sad
I just wanna be stoned
I just wanna be stoned
I just wanna be stoned
For the rest of my natural life
Because when I'm stoned
Everything I do seems to t-turn out right
Well look, I don't wanna be rich
But I don't care if I'm poor
I don't care what the policeman says I'm gonna
Break the law
I just wanna be stoned
I just wanna be stoned
I just wanna be stoned
For the rest of my natural life
'Cause when I'm stoned
Everything I do seems to t-t-t-t-t-turn out right
Look, I don't want nothing much, I just wanna be king of my own cotton street
Free, I wanna be king of my own cotton street
I know what's good for me
I just wanna be stoned
Free to be stoned for the rest of my natural life
Tell 'em how I feel
Whoo
Look, I don't wanna be rich
But I don't care if I'm poor
I don't care what the police says I'm gonna
Break the law
I just wanna be stoned
I just wanna be stoned
I just wanna be stoned for the rest of my natural life, ha-ha-ha
Because when I'm stoned
Everything I do seem to t-t-turn out right
Stoned, haha
Stoned, stoned
I j-j-j-just just wanna be
Stoned for the rest of my natural life
Because when I'm stoned
Everything I do seems to t-t-turn out right
Everything I do seems to turn out right
Everything I do seems to t-t-t-t-turn out right
Everything
Everything I do
I just wanna... free,
I just wanna be free to be
Free to be
Free to be
Free to be
Free to be
Free to be stoned
Stoned
Stoned for the rest of my...
Stoned for the rest of my natural...
Stoned, stoned, stoned, stoned
'Cause when I'm stoned
Everything I do seems to t-t-t-t-turn out right
Right
Right
Everything I seem to do
Seems to t-t-turn out right
I just wanna be stoned for the rest of my natural life

Dieses Stück Rockgeschichte von Clark/Hutchinson, 1970 als Intro auf ihrer 2. LP „Retribution“ erschienen, ist jetzt vielleicht nicht so ganz nach jedermanns Geschmack. Sollte es auch nicht. Ist jedenfalls auch kein Welthit geworden.
Tja, andere Zeiten. Doch mir gefällt’s immer noch.
p.s.:
Hatte mir die Platte übrigens - irgendwann in den 70ern - gekauft nicht unbedingt wegen der Musik, sondern wegen der Haare.
