Chorus (same as before)

Spoken part at the end(use the same chord progression during, Em C D Em):

This song was written under the influence of marajuana, which makes you think things are 
than what they really are.  Had you been smokin' marajuana while hearin this song you'd 
laughin on the floor right now sayin:  "that Fred songs whuppin mah ass turn it off!"
