Lyrics
Bobby and me, we are looking to score
We're in Needle Park City on some second floor
And there's a party tonight
We got weed, we got wine
Bobby's laughing in spite of the fact
We can't find the connection
The connection
Well, harvest the seed day after day
Children to feed, warlords to pay
Wait for the jingle truck from Kandahar
Pray for mercy and luck
These are bad men who guard the connection
And out at the mud wall twenty feet high
On the plains north of Kabul, there's chaos to buy
Poppies that pay for the Taliban guns
A purchase made possible with money from the connection
And on board a freighter, ten days at sea
A suitcase created for our destiny
A bonus, a gift from the opium trade
A wake-up call if we still haven't made the connection
Bobby and me, we're just looking to score
We got what we need, but we think we need more
And there's a party tonight
We got dope, we got cake
And somebody somewhere is hoping we make the connection
