This morning on the radio I heard something about a list of the top ten drug songs. It was kind of interesting, the bit I heard.
I'll never forget when someone finally pointed out to me the Puff the Magic Dragon/pot connection. I must say, it came as a bit of a shock, but it also seemed crystal clear, once I thought about it. Which is too bad, because I liked it better as a childhood song, which it fits just as well.
However, even though I will conceed that Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds is about LSD, I still laugh at the very notion (suggested by one of my flakier high school teachers) that Hey Jude is about heroin. Whatever!
