Why? It's about cocaine addiction.

Re: Drug Songs

Foster and Allen- A bunch of Thyme

This album is littered with blatant drug references. The title for the album came from the night that Foster and Allan bought a bag of ganja at a Bob Marley concert in 1972. It all went downhill from there. The song 'courtin in the kitchen' on that very same album, was originally entitled 'countin' in the kitchen' as the lads paid homage to their favourite dope dealer, Fat Freddy, who gave very generous deals to the lads. However the 'suits' at the record label (Shamrock records) decided that they couldn't take the chance of upsetting their older fan base and changed the name to 'courtin' in the kitchen'. Later on their drug addled exploits took a new turn when they visited the mystical Maharishi, which was an Indian take-away in Cork. It is said that F&A spent hours looking at the menu in a guinness and ganja stupor, and helped in some small way to giving them the idea for their seminal album ' Delaneys Donkey Dung', which as we all know had the infamous 'donkeys backside' cover. This album was banned by the Radio Begorrah in Ireland, and turned it into an International hit that was covered by people as diverse as Sacha Distel and Elvis.
