Wasted - Lyrics - Barstool Prophets
The Barstool Prophets were a rock band formed in Cornwall, Ontario in 1989 that was active throughout the 1990s. The members were bassist Glenn Forrester, singer songwriter Graham Greer, guitarist Al Morier, and drummer Bobby Tamas. Originally known as the Wallflowers, the band changed its name in time to release its first independent album, Deflowered, in 1993. The band soon signed to Mercury Records and released Crank in 1995 and Last of the Big Game Hunters in 1997. Crank was recorded at Metalworks Studios in Mississauga, Ontario. The single "Paranoia" was included on the soundtrack to the Antonio Banderas Rebecca De Mornay film Never Talk to Strangers. The singles "Paranoia", "Last of the Big Game Hunters" and "Friend of Mine" were all Canadian rock radio hits in the mid-late 1990s.

Wasted
Of all of us she was not one
To equate an altered state with having fun
It just wasn't done
She said they'd never get to her
Because she was so full of *** and vinegar
Always the first to laugh
And carry on when friends were gathered
The fact that she was sober never mattered
Seeing friends in revelation mode
Another mystic, cannabistic episode
She couldn't help but wonder why
She'd passed it by up until now
And just whose cat did curiosity kill?
Just one taste and she was wasted in no time
To her amazement she was wasted in not time
There's not too much to letting go
She'd never known how much
A healthy crutch could overtake her
She couldn't recall at all
What her problems with it were
They said "Taste it"
Now she's wasted all the time
She's so complacent
When she's wasted all is fine
There's not too much to letting go
