So who smokes pot?

[Donovan]

That's because he's a loser.

A lucky loser.

Actually if you check out the dude's story he's a pretty serious musician with Deeeeep influences from some impressive sources. And by most accounts he's been hyperfocused on music since he was a kid. The loser song came from a habit he acquired playing for pennies in bars and tiny clubs. He'd be laying out some great blues for inattentive drunks, so he started singing ridiculous made up lyrics just to see if anybody was listening. He did an interview once where he said "loser" was,meant to be a slam at rap, where lyrics didn't mean shit and you could song any damn thing as long as you had a catchy hook. He had to be talked into releasing it years later, and judging by the reception dude was spot-on.
