Hoy nos vamos a finales de los 90, una época donde sorprendentemente resurgió el hard rock macarra, con grupos como los escandinavos Backyard Babies o los angelinos que nos ocupan, Buckcherry. Lit Up servía de carta de presentación, y la cosa no podía empezar mejor, con uno de los riffs más míticos en su género de los últimos 20 años, así como el famoso, adictivo y controvertido estribillo “I love the cocaine”. Un temazo que desgraciadamente pocas veces fueron capaces de repetir en una carrera que fue claramente de más a menos.

Letra:
Oh yeah. You want to find it, c’mon yeah.
I’m on a plane with cocaine,
And yes I’m all lit up again
Cough up love and touch up
Your mama said packing lines is sin.
And yes I’m all lit up again,
On the couch in my bed
And yes I’m all lit up again, flyin’
I love the cocaine, I love the cocaine
Mama can you wait, mama can you wait.
I love the cocaine, I love the cocaine
Mama can you wait, oh can you wait long?
I’m on a train and ride on,
You know the train is staying off the track
I’m in touch love, from this crutch
Well you’re on ten but buddy I’m on eleven
And yes I’m all lit up again,
On the couch in my bed
And yes I’m all lit up again, flyin’
I love the cocaine, I love the cocaine
Mama can you wait, mama can you wait.
I love the cocaine, I love the cocaine
Mama can you wait, oh can you wait long?
Crack the door for the curious girl ‘cause she’s waiting
She’s been waiting.
Chop a line for the fiending man cause he wants one.
You know you know you got to, can you feel it can you feel it
Tonight, are you high love, tell me are you fucking high.
In the moment you are just so right,
You’re right love, oh you’re right love.
And yes I’m all lit up again,
On the couch in my bed
And yes I’m all lit up again, flyin’
I love the cocaine, I love the cocaine
Mama can you wait, mama can you wait.
I love the cocaine, I love the cocaine
Mama can you wait, oh can you wait long?
Oh yeah.
Don’t want to fight it.
Alright.
Yeah.
Ah yeah.
