Substance Abuse
Dodge & Fuski Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There are approximately 250 species in this figure and that doesn't include hybrids.
But all these substances have one thing in common.
The active ingredient nepetalactone cycloalkane.
An essential oil found in the leaves and stem of a plant that causes
wildy unpredictable behavior in its users,
characterized by hallucinations, allusions, and distortions in both perception and thinking;
That's cat nip. That's cat nip. That's cat nip. It goes by many names.
But all these substances have one thing in common.
The active ingredient nepetalactone cycloalkane.
An essential oil found in the leaves and stem of a plant that causes
wildy unpredictable behavior in its users,
characterized by hallucinations, allusions, and distortions in both perception and thinking;
That's cat nip. That's cat nip. That's cat nip.
In the lyrics of Dodge & Fuski's song Substance Abuse, the main subject being discussed is the psychotropic effects of catnip. The song explains that despite being known by many names and having different species, catnip contains nepetalactone cycloalkane, which is responsible for its unpredictable effects on its users. The oil is found in the leaves and stem of the catnip plant, and when consumed by cats, it causes hallucinations, distortions in perception, and thinking.
The song highlights the fact that catnip affects cats differently and unpredictably, making it difficult to control its effects. Despite its playful association with cats, Substance Abuse draws attention to the plant's hallucinogenic properties and serious consequences. The lyrics connect to the larger theme of substance abuse, as it explains how seemingly harmless substances can have unpredictable effects on the body and mind. The song is a reminder that even though a substance might be legal and easily accessible, it is still essential to understand its effects and use it responsibly.
