Songs about drugs that no one knows are about drugs.

how can anybody not know comfotably numb is about heroin?
at first i didnt get all the references but some experience cleared everything up.. the worste is "my hands felt just like two balloons" OUCH OUCH OUCH TOO MUCH DOPE!!!!!
 
There's a lot of songs that are obviously about drugs posted in this thread, (like comfortably numb), but one that's not known...

Hmmm... a spoonful of sugar by of montreal perhaps? I can seem to find the lyrics to post in here however.
 
As others have mentioned 'Under the bridge' comes straight to hand. Also while on the chili peppers 'taste the pain.' Making the drug into a woman usually comes in handy in hiding the meaning or being to obvious. In that particullar track Anthony sings " This may come as a shocking suprise, I have to take a walk I have to kiss it goodbye, Goodbye my love"

Ok.
Just a little pinprick.
There'll be no more ...Aaaaaahhhhh!
But you may feel a little sick.
Can you stand up?
I do believe it's working. Good.
That'll keep you going for the show.
Come on it's time to go.

It's funny how something can have so many meanings and be right with all of them. That could be them administering naloxone to fight a heroin binge/high or it could be them administering thorazine to fight an LSD binge/high. I've heard it argued both ways (But I think it's heroin).

Great thread.

As for my hidden drug song: The Cure - Hot Hot Hot

the first time i saw lightning strike
i saw it underground
six deep feet below the street
the sky came crashing down
for a second that place was lost in space
then everything went black
i left that basement burning
and i never went back

the second time i saw it strike
i saw it at sea
it lit up all the fish like rain
and rained them down on me
for a second that boat was still afloat
then everything went black
i left it underwater
and i never went back

hey hey hey!!!
but i like it when that lightning comes
hey hey hey!!!
yes i like it a lot
hey hey hey!!!
yes i'm jumping like a jumping jack
dancing screaming itching squealing fevered
feeling hot hot hot!!!
 
ive heard LOTS of rap songs (like jay z for insance) that are about crack and little college kid white boys have no idea, not even what "R-O-C" means...
 
^^^ I never knew what that meant either. But when I lived in Taiwan and heard Jay Z say that for the first time, I thought because I was in Taiwan, R.O.C. (Republic of China), they'd mixed a special remix just for play in Taiwan =D
 
na wasnt talking about that song, theres some song where someone (who isnt jay z) is like yo mah girl in me all day smokin the R - O - C! and these dudes are like wow man thats like jay z;s label! and im like no dude its crack! and theyre like wtf man ew crack thats for homeless people!
 
Horrorshow - The Libertines
What a waster - The Libertines


...although, loads of their songs have drug references in them.

I actually read in the newspaper the other day that the Beatles' Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds wasn't referring to LSD... Here's the link:

Personally - I prefer the connotation to acid... =D

"Cellophane flowers of yellow and green,
Towering over your head...
...Where rocking horse people eat marshmellow pies,
Everyone smiles as you drift past the flowers,
That grow so incredibly high.
Newspaper taxis appear on the shore,
Waiting to take you away.
Climb in the back with your head in the clouds,
And you’re gone..."
