Lyrics:
My friend picked me up about a quarter past five.
We stopped and got some donuts and we took a little drive.
We had a can of nitrous, we rolled the windows up.
Now we're breathing deeply, breathing deeply.
And there's a fume in this truck and I don't know if we're dead or what the fuck?
There's a fume in this truck and I don't know if we're dead or what the fuck or what?

We spent many years always trying to get high.
Smokin' broken pencils and beating up kids,
Talking to the devil and drinking a coke.
Now we're totally rocking, totally rocking.
And there's a fume in this truck and I don't know if we're dead or what the fuck?
There's a fume in this truck and I don't know if we're dead or what the fuck or what?

We got a good idea, so we pulled off the road.
Got some Molly Hatchet going on the stereo.
I said let's roll up the windows, let the nitrous go.
Now we can't stop laughing, can't stop laughing.
And there's a fume in this truck and I don't know if we're dead or what the fuck?
There's a fume in this truck and I don't know if we're dead or what the fuck?
What the fuck is going on?

[chatter]

There's a fume in this truck!
And I don't know if we're dead or what the fuck!?
There's a fume in this truck!
And I don't know if we're dead or what the fuck!?
There's a fume in this truck!
And I don't know if we're dead or what the fuck!?
There's a fume in this truck!
And I don't know if we're dead or what the fuck!?

There's a fume in this truck!
And I don't know if we're dead or what the fuck!?
There's a fume in this truck!
And I don't know if we're dead or what the fuck!?
There's a fume in this truck!
And I don't know if we're dead or what the fuck!?
There's a fume in this truck!
And I don't know if we're dead or what the fuck!?
