It's something I used to say every now and then. One day I just sat down and wrote the lyrics. After I mentioned it on the Pseu Braun show on WFMU, I kinda had to record it. It's always challenging recording a 'conventional'ish song, but I think it came out pretty good.

I think I'm going back

I'm feeling so down, busted and blue
All f***d up, don't know what to do
Spinning in a spiral like I'm going insane
Mind blocked up, constipated in the brain
Don't know where I'm going but I know where I've been
Mostly 'round the corner of Cabrini and 10th
A beat up little house kinda off the beaten path
I know I said I wouldn't, but I think I'm going back

On my mind, I think about it all the time
The place where I could go to just forget about my life
Sit back with a 40 and some Doral Lights
Hang out with the peeps just hitting off the pipe
Party for a week til I run out of cash
Wake up with a headache and blood on my a**
Memories assault me and I can't fight back
I probably shouldnt, but I think I'm going back

I'm going back to the Crack Shack
I'm gonna get my groove back, ooh
I'm going back to the Crack Shack
I'm going back, going back
(I think I'm going back)

Been putting on the pounds since I quit coming round
But nothing tastes as good as a crack pipe in your mouth
Sleep all day, can't get out of bed
Dreams of crack rock keep running through my head
Tried Prozac, Zoloft, Paxil and the rest
Herbs, oils, enemas and no success
Only one thing can bring me back to life
And I know just the place where I can get some tonight

I'm going back to the Crack Shack
I'm gonna get my groove back, ooh
I'm going back to the Crack Shack
I'm going back, going back
(I think I'm going back)

(crack rock, crack rock... running through my head...)

Getting all ready with my Dorals and my pipe
A 40 and some weed and that should be about right
I promise myself right as I walk up to the door
It's the last time; I won't go back no more
...but tonight

I'm going back to the Crack Shack
I'm gonna get my groove back, ooh
I'm going back to the Crack Shack
I'm going back, going back
Won't go back no more, but just for tonight
Get some crack rock to make me feel all right
Won't go back no more, but just for tonight
Get some crack rock to make me feel all right
Won't go back no more, but just for tonight
Get some crack rock to make me feel all right
Won't go back no more, but just for tonight
Get some crack rock to make me feel all right

Back no more
