Man I was sitting around thinking and the smell of mary-j-wuanna leaves was burning a stench 
into the ashtray, which happened to be hood of my car—an old beat-up station wagon with the 
high beams burnt out. Now, as I said I, was thinking... grandma was always trying to hook me 
up into going to the big house. She said I'd learn somethin'—somethin' right. She said you

That's when I it all hell
That's when I saw God
That's when I saw what
That's when I saw
