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