[Intro]
One, two
One, two, uh, uh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 1]
Regrets, they say you should have none
I took a pretty significant amount of acid when I was young
And these thoughts weigh heavy on my brain
'Cause as I reminisce I wonder if I took that LSD in vain
[Chorus]
Back in the day when all I really really wanted was a VCR
Back in the day when all I really really wanted was a cheap cheap car
You can't learn calculus if you don't know algebra
Gotta know yourself first if you want the LSD to bring something outta ya, damn
[Verse 2]
Geometric patterns and designs
Distorted perception of the way you take in the passage of time
In those days, I was an adolescent fool
I think me and my brother just discovered that trippin' was pretty cool
[Chorus]
Back in the day when all I really really wanted was a VCR
Back in the day when all I really really wanted was a cheap cheap car
You can't learn calculus if you don't know algebra
You gotta know yourself first if you want the LSD to bring something outta ya, yeah
[Bridge]
At 17 I hadn't developed into who I would become
At 23 I realized I was a full grown adult human
At 37 I took acid again
But you only get one first impression and that was then
[Verse 3]
Ayy, these days, I'm a scholar and a gent
My mind's wide open and I'm ready for further enlightenment
So last night while starin' at the moon
I came to the conclusion I was usin' LSD a bit too soon
[Chorus]
Back in the day when all I really really wanted was to be a rockstar
Gettin' high as fuck in the back of a Ford Windstar
You can't learn calculus if you don't know algebra
You gotta know yourself first if you want the LSD to bring something outta ya, yeah
[Outro]
Aw yeah, motherfucker, damn
I'm seein' parallelograms and trapezoids
Let's turn on these crazy lights
