Subject: Lyrics Meaning...Help

Anyone know what thes lines mean from Semi-Charmed Life by Third Eye Blind?

And I speak to you like the chorus to the verse
Chop another line like a coda with a curse

And then I bumped up, I took the hit that I was given
Then I bumped again, And then I bumped again,

Don't know if it's true or not, but I heard that the song was about being high. :-/

There are references to sex and drugs in the song.  Some of the lyrics are garbled or bleeped out on the radio now.  Funny, a couple of years ago, they played the song without bleeping any of the lyrics.

Clean radio has bleeped out this part, I guess cause it relates to drug use.  If the group changed the lyrics to say, Charlie Mcgoo, it wouldn't get bleeped, like Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds by the Beatles.  Clean radio would probably bleep LSD (also wouldn't fit in the song) ;)

Strange, I just heard this today and all the lyrics were there, nothing was bleeped. ???  Guess it's only "PC" radio stations that are doing that ;D
