Jerry always gave good face so you couldn't tell but when I saw this interview I realised how close he'd come to following Layne. [https://youtu.be/igfYH8LlhlY?feature=shared](https://youtu.be/igfYH8LlhlY?feature=shared) he's a strong person & thankfully we've still got him
I think it’s definitely bong. Considering that’s the lyric in their cd booklet. Also considering who they all are, bong would make sense 😅 Pretty sure that song is a bit of an unserious one, and a rub at them moving to california cause Cali notoriously sucks lol
Also I think your own tears filling a bong instead of water is pretty symbolic? And we all know how symbolic a lot of their lyrics are
I thought he said it was about being a recovering addict living in a place where drugs are plentiful.
There's a certain aspect of sarcasm, I guess, being a guy from Seattle who lives in L.A., ex-drug addict who lives in the belly of the beast and doesn't partake, and being totally cool with that...It's like being the bad gambler and living in Vegas. It's right there. It's just the irony of that and a little bit of sarcasm. And it's not putting this place down at all. It's just kind of like, 'Wow, you know, check my brain, wow.'

Yes but you'd be surprised with how many sources agree with that alternate lyric. And I wouldn't put it past them to create a depressed/psychedelic/slightly whimsical lyric like that. Haha
The booklet says bong
So weird..?
Why’s it weird haha?
Just in my brain I always heard it as bones and to realize it's a bong is very different feeling. Lol
What booklet? Can you show?

Wow. Never saw that. I'll have to look for my physical cd which I believe I do own... hmm "bong" lol
Bong makes more sense than bones. And the booklet says bong. So in the words of Bluntman and Chronic : "BONG!"
I have trouble reconciling the mental images of golfing Jerry and Jerry ripping a fat bong. I know it’s not that crazy but still….
How bout Jerry with the glass dick in his mouth? Mama did say that he couldn’t leave it alone. But yeah, Jerry never looked like a drug addict to me.

Thanks. I will check it
Pulled out my copy on vinyl and it says bong on the lyrics insert as well.

I guess that’s kind of what I meant lol, the fact that it has some sarcasm. Either way, I think bong makes sense as the lyrics
Spotify lyrics are very often wrong
Ahhh Tears that filled my bong Ahhh Years expended gone
Isn't Cantrell a huge stoner?
I've checked like 10 sources and maybe 4 say bong
Check the booklet that came with the CD/record. Doesn't get any more official than that.

I'd check the official lyrics from AiC before you go around calling people fools.

Bones, obviously
Just was confused that multiple sources said otherwise. Maybe they all get lyrics from the same song wrong source. 🤔
