Life would be ecstasy
Chewing the LSD

The story:

I know my mother and I both heard the words 'chewing the LSD' and were mildly alarmed at this apparently open drug-mongering. The ridiculous 'chewing' made it seem all the more brazen, somehow. I can't remember when I became aware that LSD didn't typically need much mastication, but it must have been that insight that ushered in a suspicion that we'd heard the words a-wrong. Nothing embarrassing about it: it's made a banal line far more memorable and I still grin inwardly every time I hear the song.
