Lyrics

Doctor Tom is getting on
All he does is sign his name
I get things, my brainbox sings
But I’ll go down again
Play with fire, getting higher
Higher than a nine foot flame
My soul is spent and so’s the rent
But I’ll go down again
Wino Junko can’t say no
Wino Junko, eyes aglow
Pill freak spring a leak
You can’t say no till you go down again
This and that you crazy cat
Flying sideways once again
I’m in a spin, it makes me grin
But I’ll go down again
Wino Junko can’t say no
Wino Junko, eyes aglow
Pill freak spring a leak
You can’t say no till you go down again
Wino Junko can’t say no
Wino Junko, eyes aglow
Pill freak spring a leak
You can’t say no till you go down again
Till you go down (you go down) again
Till you go down again
Till you go down
Take what I need until I bleed
People will say I’ve gone insane
Ain’t scared to die, it’s such a high
Till I go down again
Wino Junko can’t say no
Wino Junko eyes aglow
Pill freak spring a leak
You can’t say no till you go down again
Wino Junko can’t say no
Wino Junko eyes aglow
Pill freak, spring a leak
You can’t say no till you go down again
Till you go down (you go down) again
Till you go down again
Wino Junko. Wino Junko

One of my favorite songs from this album. I was surprised to see that Paul didn't write it. I also love Medicine Jar!
