I've got pennies in my pocket and I'm feeling no care
Gonna find all my answers with minimum delay
Gonna manage my time just like Johann Cruyff
If we do it together we've got meaning of life

But I just wanna smoke it
I just wanna smoke it
I just wanna smoke it
I just wanna smoke it
I just wanna smoke it
I just wanna smoke it
I just wanna smoke it
I just wanna smoke it

The feeling's good, the time is now
So throw the knife towards the meaning of life

Coz I just wanna smoke it
I just wanna smoke it
I just wanna smoke it
I just wanna smoke it

No-one told us we could get so high! (X4)

What's the meaning of life?
(A loving companion)
What's the meaning of life?
(Stereo system)
What's the meaning of life?
(Ten-speed mountain bike)
What's the meaning of life?
Anything you like, like!

But I just wanna smoke it
I just wanna smoke it
I just wanna smoke it
I just wanna smoke it
I just wanna smoke it
I just wanna smoke it
I just wanna smoke it
I just wanna smoke it

I just wanna smoke it (X28)

Quote (Gruff):
"Smokin' could be a really good truck-driving song. When they're driving along the motorway, pushing the speed limit, they could be singing, 'I just want to smoke it!', because they want to burn the rubber on their tyres. Or Smokin' could be a rallying cry for the fisherman of Britain if the EC banned smoked mackerel."
