2.	Not Holding 02:37	lyrics	buy track
No weed no hash Time to restock the stash Tear up the couch find all the change Every penny helps make the exchange We’re not holding We’re not holding Call up the guy Set up the time Soon we’ll have a deal Biding our time Waiting for nine Jonesing so for real Break out the bowls Gather the knives Resinate until we fly

He’s got to get out to his dealer man’s crash He’s keeping low profile he’s got lots of cash He’s trusted and dispatched to refresh the stash He’s hoping to make it as fast as he can He’s got to watch out to not be seen by the man He’s feeling high spirits he’s excited for the plan Hashishin Hashashin

Bambalacha the Wise I got the cure for what ails you My stash is full of surprise Only the best of the kindest will do I’m Bambalacha the Wise Name your pleasure and I’ll score for you Now wouldn’t it be nice To have all you want without what you go through Bambalacha the Wise! Bam bal a cha Yeah!

about

This is a stoner rock operetta about some college friends living together in a house and running out of weed. They scrape all their bowls to the glass, then smoke the resin until they are left with just ashes. They cannot get any higher without obtaining more. They have reached the Stone Plateau. So they scrounge all their money together, gathering all the cash they can find, even flipping over the cushions on the couch for loose change.

They assign one of them the task of going out and scoring more from the rich kid they know in the dorms who sells weed, and also sometimes mushrooms. The housemate returns, triumphantly with a sack of some sick shit, and they all gather around the bong to light up a bowl and get stoned and listen to the new record "Stone Plateau" by Blacklighter, which is a stoner rock operetta about some college friends living together in a house and running out of weed...

I got a job, so I could finally buy this album and stop listening for free on Bandcamp. Awesome rock music, especially the second half of the album. Lovdahl, Ian
