	Story Behind the Song If you have any background in the fine arts then you already know what Absinthe is. This track was written on the top of Cowles Mountain after a morning of partaking in the "Green Fairy." The lyrics alone stand poetically stable, and when set to the Reggae/Fusion Dub sound that is Badcard, it takes on the feel of what Absinthe is all about. Please read the lyrics while you listen to this selection. No introduction is needed. Lyrics Absinth Minded İ Badcard Music 2001 It will make you believe, and it can make you see With the right mix of leaves it's a liquid subtlety Stomach a sip don't accept substitution It's an ancient trip thru a mind revolution Absinthium mist taking shape all around me I'm not asleep but a dream state has found me Its sweet taste I savor and later Iıll pay Try and put it on paper before it all slips away Creations come easy along with my next glass Being this dizzy has never been such a blast A potent delivery comes along with each drink Straight from the goddess who laughs as I sink Like Vincent Van Gough and Pablo Picasso Alister Crowley and Henri-Louis Pernod It streams thru my veins and pulsates my heart If this is insane then I'll play the part My glass hits the floor followed by my head I'll Get up for some more brewing out in my old shed As I pull at the cork a green fog invites me To tip this sweet poison and find the green fairy invites me Two bottles one day and its not even night The true madness comes when there's not a drop left in sight I need one more to drink there is no replacement its time to think in my cranium basement First comes the shakes then comes the terror A vandalized head can be serious error A wormwood binge is all I can do An Absinthium nightmare Iım bringing to you Roaming the streets in search for salvation this green fluid's sent my soul to damnation Itıs dried up my bones turned my stomach to filth I want more I cant think now its taken my wealth and my brain am I insane? While I lay in the Gravel What I thought was a fairy turned into the devil.
