Go Figure - envisaged album artwork (front)
Feel No Pain - Picture Disc (Side A)
SSV - Drugsar


Drugsar is a song on the SSV album Go Figure.

It is the track no.6 on the Feel No Pain LP and the Screw Shareholder Value CD.

The song is very repetitive, sounding flanged and phased,

with Eldritch moaning a few "Ohhhh.. Ohh oh ohhhhh..."s throughout the opening part.

The title is a play on the phrase "Drugs Tsar".

Some verses have a different third line, though it is hard to hear,

it sounds vaguely like "We carve the ?????" as opposed to "We drive a long black car".

There's a still video with audio from the master CD here to give you an impression.

Our thanks go to Weird Tunes for the upload.

Lyrics

We are the Drugsar
We know where the drugs are
We've got a long black car

We are the Drugsar
We know where the drugs are
We've got the blues from Mars

We are the Drugsar
We know where the drugs are
in a long black car

(repeated many times)
