Lying in my plastic bed
Thinking how thinking how things wern't so cool me
My baby likes to shoot pool
I like lying naked in my bedroom
Tying off that dinosaur tonight
It used to be so cool
Now I've got the needle
I can shake
But I can't bleed
Take it away, but I want more and more
One day I'm gonna loose the war
Lying in my plastic bed
Thinking how thinking how things wern't so cool me
My baby likes to shoot pool
I like lying naked in my bedroom
Tying off that dinosaur tonight
It used to be so cool
Now I've got the needle
I can shake
But I can't bleed
Take it away, but I want more and more
One day I'm gonna loose the war

Album: Robbin' The Hood
Year: 1994
Poolshark is by now known as not only one of Sublime's most moving songs about addiction, but as one of the best drug addiction-driven songs ever made.
The tale of hopelessness that it portrays shined a whole new light on Bradley's addiction, as it showed that he now not only thought of his addiction as a burden, but as the force in his life that very well could end it.
