faster than anyone could roll
Her legend finally reached New York
that Grove Street walk-up flat
Where dwelt The Calistoga Kid

a beatnik from the past
Her legend finally reached New York
that Grove Street walk-up flat
Where dwelt The Calistoga Kid

a beatnik from the past
Hashishers from Morocco

hemp smokers from Peru

And the Shamnicks from Bagun

who puffthe deadly Pugaroo
Life and those that call it boo
See the dealers and their ladies
wearing turquoise lace and leather
See the narcos and the closet

smokers with all together
well the kid he flicks his fingers once
and zap that f'lrstjoints rolled
Pearl takes one toke with her famous
lungs and woosh that roach is cold
Then The Kid he rolls his

Super Bomb thatd paralyze a moose
And Pearley takes one mighty hit
and slurp that bomb defused
Then he rolls three injust ten seconds
and she smokes 'em up in nine
And everybody sits back and says

this just might take some time
jays with fingers blue and stiff
She coughs and
stares with bloodshot

gaze and puffs

through blistered lips
stares with bloodshot

gaze and puffs

through blistered lips
bitch there's nothin' left to roll

Nothin left to roll screams

Pearl Is this some twisted joke
Lives a girl named Pearly Sweetcake
you probly know her well
She's been stoned twenty-one of her

24 year story is still widely told
And underneath his
fingers there's a

little golden scroll

That says Beware
of Bein' the Roller
When There's Nothin' Left to Roll
