Purple Hills
D-12 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I take a couple uppers, I down a couple downers
But nothing compares to these blue and yellow purple pills
I've been to mushroom mountain, once or twice but who's countin'
But nothin' compares to these blue and yellow purple pills
Yo, yo
With a couple of Valium inside her palm
It's Mr. Mischief with a trick up his sleeve
To roll up on you like Christopher Reeves
I can't describe the vibe I get
When I drive by six people and five I hit (oops)
Aw shit, I started a mosh pit
Squashed a bitch and stomped her foster kids (AHH!)
These 'shrooms make me hallucinate
Then I sweat till I start losin' weight
'Til I see dumb shit start happenin'
Dumber than Vanilla Ice tryin' to rap again
So bounce, bounce, come on bounce
I said come on, bounce
Everybody in the house with a half an ounce (me!)
Not weed, I meant coke, dumb-ass sit down
We don't bullshit, better ask around
D-12 throws the bombest bash in town
Bizarre, your mom is passin' out
Get her ass on the couch 'fore she crashes out
Come on!
Fuck that, someone help Denaun
He's upstairs naked with a weapon drawn
Heh, hey Von you see me steppin' on these leprechauns?
It gotta be acid cause the X is gone
Ya I took them all dawg with some parmesan
And I think my arm is gone
Naw it's probably numb
Young, dumb, and full of cum
And I think he 'bout to swallow his tongue
Scary ass it was a false alarm
You think I'm 'bout to die when I just got on?
Yo stop actin' stupid
You so high that you might wake up with a guy on some new shit (EWW!)
Yeah I think I did too much, this substance equals cups
Red pills, blue pills, and green, big pills (that's ill), mescaline!
I take a couple uppers, I down a couple downers
But nothing compares to these blue and yellow purple pills
I've been to mushroom mountain, once or twice but who's countin'
But nothin' compares to these blue and yellow purple pills
Dirty Dozen, eighty of us, Shady brothers, ladies love us
That's why our baby mothers love us but they hate each other
They probably wanna take each other out and date each other
Some, somethin', some'un, some'un, some'un
Pop pills, pills I pop
Pop two pills on stilts I walk
Snort two lines that were filled with chalk
Thought it was Incredible and killed the Hulk
I wanna, roll away like a rollerblade
Until my eyes roll back in my skull for days
And when I'm, old and gray look for dope to smoke
No okey-doke, I'm packin' my nose with coke
Am I supposed to choke?
Had an accident when the Trojan broke
Ahh, poor baby, born by whore lady
Now I gotta strangle a (you're crazy!)
I pop fo' E's at one time
And I don't need water when I'm swallowin' mine
(Yeah, you got any shrooms?) Does Bizarre smoke crack?
We can't get jobs cause our arms show tracks
Why the hell you niggaz think I rap?
We do it just to get your company hijacked
And if you like smack (uh-huh) then I might too
(Swift, chill) I just wanna get high like you! (ewww)
And I don't give a damn if they white or blue (uh-huh)
Speed, 'shrooms, down the valiums (uh-huh)
Even smoke weed outta vacuums
I just copped some and I'm goin back soon
I take a couple uppers, I down a couple downers
But nothing compares to these blue and yellow purple pills
I've been to mushroom mountain, once or twice but who's countin'
But nothin compares to these blue and yellow purple pills
I'm at rave lookin' like a slave, high off chronic
Gin and tonic demonic, body smell like vomit
Pussy poppin', acid droppin', dope-headed guy
Heroin mescaline, pencilnecks, wanna try?
Blue pills, golden seals, got Bizarre, actin' ill
Drugs kill (yeah right) bitch, I'm for real!!!
Shut your mouth you dirty slut, you know you want it in your butt
I'll put it in your cunt, let Bizarre nut!
I take a couple uppers, I down a couple downers
But nothing compares to these blue and yellow purple pills
I've been to mushroom mountain, once or twice but who's countin'
But nothin' compares to these blue and yellow purple pills
Dirty Dozen, eighty of us, Shady brothers, ladies love us
That's why our baby mothers love us but they hate each other
They probably wanna take each other out and date each other
Some, somethin, some'un, some'un, some'un
The lyrics of D-12's song "Purple Pills" are a commentary on the drug culture prevalent in society. The lyrics detail the effects of several drugs, such as uppers and downers, mushrooms, pills, and other hallucinogens. The song acknowledges the temporary euphoria that drug use brings, but then highlights the disastrous consequences- vomiting, being unable to move and even death. The lyrics suggest that drugs can be addictive, and long-term use can lead to a destructive lifestyle.
Furthermore, the lyrics contain a lot of vulgar language, and the song also references sexual acts and violence, which may not be appropriate for all listeners. The song creates a bleak image of the drug culture, depicting individuals as powerless against their dependence on substances, and ultimately leading to self-destruction.
In conclusion, "Purple Pills" is a cautionary tale about the perils of drug use, revealing the dark side of drug dependence and addiction. It's not just about the momentary euphoria but also the consequences that come with looking for a quick fix.

I took all the pills with some cheese, and my arm might be gone, but it's probably just numb. I'm young, dumb, and full of energy, and I thought I was going to swallow my tongue, but it was a false alarm. You think I'm going to die when I just started getting high?
You so high that you might wake up with a guy on some new shit (EWW!)

I take pills, I take two pills and feel like I'm on stilts. I snort two lines filled with chalk and feel like I'm the Incredible Hulk who just killed someone
I wanna, roll away like a rollerblade
Until my eyes roll back in my skull for days
I want to get so high that I can't see for days

Am I supposed to choke?
When I'm old and gray, I'll still be smoking weed and snorting cocaine. And I don't care if it makes me cough
I pop fo' E's at one time
And I don't need water when I'm swallowin' mine
I take four ecstasy pills at a time and don't even need water to swallow them
We can't get jobs cause our arms show tracks
Why the hell you niggaz think I rap?
We do it just to get your company hijacked

And if you like smack (uh-huh) then I might too
(Swift, chill) I just wanna get high like you! (ewww)
And I don't give a damn if they white or blue (uh-huh)
Speed, 'shrooms, down the valiums (uh-huh)
Even smoke weed outta vacuums
I just copped some and I'm goin back soon
If you like heroin, then I might try it too. I just want to get high like you, and I don't care if the drugs are white or blue. I'll take speed, mushrooms, valiums, and even smoke weed out of a vacuum. I just bought some drugs and am going to get more soon.

Pussy poppin', acid droppin', dope-headed guy
Heroin mescaline, pencilnecks, wanna try?
I'm at a rave and look like a slave, high off marijuana. I smell like vomit from drinking gin and tonics. I'm popping pills and dropping acid. I'm so addicted to drugs like heroin and mescaline that I'm not sure if I'll ever stop. Do you want to try some of this?
Blue pills, golden seals, got Bizarre, actin' ill
Drugs kill (yeah right) bitch, I'm for real!!!
Blue pills and golden seals are causing Bizarre to act crazy. But drugs don't actually kill, it's all a joke.
Shut your mouth you dirty slut, you know you want it in your butt
I'll put it in your cunt, let Bizarre nut!
Stop talking you slut, you want me to have sex with you. I'll put it in your vagina and let Bizarre ejaculate.
Some, somethin, some'un, some'un, some'un
This line doesn't really have a meaning, it's just filler
