اصلا ماهتم للدنيا
الصاير بيه مو شويه

تفرج يمته رايد اعرف
حتى منهو اني اتصرف

اعثر صح ارجع اوكف
يندم والله اليندك بيه

شفت الزين شفت الشين
نلكى الطيب كلي وين





توحشت هاي العالم كلها
شدة نكول والله يحلها

Overall Meaning

The song "Line in 2-3" by the Australian group The Grates is a song about drug use and its effects on the singer. The song starts with the singer catching a train to work on a rainy day and needing to use the bathroom. They meet a man named Greg who is "pissed off his head" and doing lines of a drug on the Doomben Line (a commuter rail line in Brisbane, Australia). The singer then goes to work, and despite being "totally gone," they get a promotion. The second verse repeats the same pattern, with the singer using the train and meeting Greg again to do more lines. The song ends with the refrain "Doing Lines on the Doomben Line" repeated several times.


The song's lyrics are a commentary on the use of drugs in the workplace and the negative effects it can have on productivity and personal relationships. The singer's drug use is depicted as leading to a promotion but also causing them to be "totally gone" and potentially jeopardizing their job.


Overall, "Line in 2-3" is a cautionary tale about the dangers of drug use and its impact on one's personal and professional life. The lyrics are delivered in a catchy and upbeat manner, with the driving guitar and drum beat adding to the song's energy.
