Well I wake up in the morning
Look at my clock
It's way past noon time
Now I'm late for work.
Tell me, tell me
What have I done wrong?
Ain't nothing go right with me
Must be I've been smoking too long.
Well I go to find me some breakfast
But I ain't got no food
Take me a shower
But the water don't feel no good.
Tell me...
I've got opium in my chimney
No other life to choose
Nightmare made of hash dreams.
Got the devil in my shoes
Tell me...
Well when I'm smoking
Put my worries on a shelf
Don't think about nothin'
Try not to see myself.
Tell me...
Well in this blues I'm singin'
There's a lesson to be learned
Don't go around smokin'
Unless you want to get burned.
Tell me...
The lyrics BEEN SMOKING TOO LONG of NICK DRAKE is also present in the album Time of no reply (1986)
Nicholas Rodney Drake, noto come Nick Drake, è stato un cantautore e chitarrista inglese nato nel 1948. La sua musica, caratterizzata da melodie malinconiche e testi introspettivi, si inserisce principalmente nel genere folk-rock. Drake ha pubblicato tre album in studio durante la sua breve carriera: *Five Leaves Left* (1969), *Bryter Layter* (1970) e *Pink Moon* (1972). Nonostante un'iniziale mancanza di successo commerciale, il suo lavoro è stato riscoperto negli anni '80, diventando oggetto di culto tra appassionati di musica indie e folk. Drake è ricordato per la sua sensibilità poetica, la raffinata tecnica chitarristica e l'atmosfera introversa che permea le sue canzoni. Alcuni dei suoi brani più rappresentativi sono *Pink Moon*, *Northern Sky* e *Cello Song*. La sua vita fu segnata da una profonda malinconia e da un senso di alienazione, che si riflette nella sua musica. Drake morì nel 1974 all'età di soli 26 anni a causa di un'overdose accidentale di barbiturici.
