Well let me tell you darlin' I've been high most of my life,
And a dream is just a wish that a heart makes,
I used to sell ya, sell ya, sell ya,
Only things you could find in a drug store
People used to tell me, tell me, tell me,
Just what kinda high they were lookin' for
Take a ride on a purple airplane,
Honey I don't know when I'll be back again

Cause I got broken bones,
Not from the sticks and stones
But from the names that you call me
I got broken bones,
Not from the sticks and stones
But from the names that you call me

Hey you got the picture do you know what I mean,
I'm the fire baby and you're the gasoline
You like my characteristics, you like my stones,
Call me all the names you say and break my bones

Well let me tell you I've been high most of my life,
And a dream is just a wish that a heart makes,
I used to sell ya, sell ya, sell ya,
Only things you could find in a drugstore
People used to tell me, tell me, tell me,
Just what kinda high they were lookin' for
Take a ride on a purple airplane,
Honey I don't know when I'll be back again

Cause I got broken bones,
Not from the sticks and stones
But from the names that you call me
I got broken bones
Not from the sticks and stones
But from the names that you call me

Hey you got the picture do you know what I mean,
I'm the fire baby and you're the gasoline
You like my characteristics, you like my stones,
Call me all the names you say and break my bones

Well let me tell you darlin' I've been high most of my life,
And a dream is just a wish that a heart makes,
I used to sell ya, sell ya, sell ya,
Only things you could find in a drugstore
People used to tell me, tell me, tell me,
Just what kinda high they were lookin' for
Take a ride on a purple airplane,
Honey I don't know when I'll be back again
