1/2 Acre of Garlic
Too long, too long I'm gone
Too stoned, go home
Step out that door
Just one leg more
Get going before you do
So long, I'm gone
Sail on, so long sail on
So long that she won't know
It's me that she won't see again
So long, I'm gone I'm gone
What's wrong, too gone
Step out that door
Just one leg more
Get going before you do
Too stoned, go home, go home
Too stoned, too stoned, go home
Step out that door
Just one leg more
Get going before you do
