Don't give me that
Don't give me no coke, no crack
You've ever heard about Richard Pryor
The greatest comedian in America

He is full of petrol
He is full of women

In California he is a big actor
One morning I read in the papers
The great Richard Pryor, he catch fire
He was in a big house and tried free-base

It never worked right
It blew in his face
It all went wrong
I fell sorry for him

He was burnt up and down
He was fried like a chicken

Cocaine, money missing
With people and brains
You put it in your nose
And it makes you go lame
It makes you walk naked
In the pouring rain
And lets you crazy
To the cross of trains
