I was gonna clean my room until I got high (ooh ooh ooh)
I was gonna get up and find the broom, but then I got high
My room is still messed up and I know why (Why man?)

[Chorus]
(Yeah hey)
'Cause I got high
Because I got high
Because I got high
(La-da-da da da da-da-da da)

[Verse 2]
I was gonna go to class before I got high (c'mon yall, check it out)
I could'a cheated and I could'a passed, but I got high, uh, uh

[Chorus]
'Cause I got high
Because I got high
Because I got high
(Go to the next one, go to the next one. Backaaa)

[Verse 3]
I was gonna go to work but then I got high (ooh ooh ooh)
I just got a new promotion, but I got high
Now I'm selling dope and I know why (Why man?)

[Chorus]
'Cause I got high
Because I got high
Because I got high
(La-da-da da da da da)

[Verse 4]
I was gonna go to court before I got high (ooh ooh ooh)
I was gonna pay my child support, but then I got high (No you wasn’t, yeah)
They took my whole paycheck and I know why (Why man?)

[Chorus]
'Cause I got high
Because I got high
Because I got high
(La-da-da da da da da)

[Verse 5]
I wasn't gonna run from the cops but I was high
I'm serious (ooh ooh ooh)
I was gonna pull right over and stop but I was high
Now I am a paraplegic and I know why (Why man?)

[Chorus]
'Cause I got high
Because I got high
Because I got high
(La-da-da da da da da)

[Verse 6]
I was gonna pay my car note until I got high
I wasn't gonna gamble on the boat but then I got high
Now the tow truck is pulling away and I know why (Why man?)

[Chorus]
Because I got high
Because I got high
Because I got high
(La da da da da da da da da)

I was gonna make love to you (Oh!) but then I got high
I'm serious (ooh ooh ooh)
I was gonna eat yo' pussy too (OOHHH!) but then I got high
(He trippin', he trippin')
Now I'm jacking off (AAH!!) and I know why (Turn that shit off!)

Because I got high (Do that over, do that over, next one)
Because I got high (Go! Go! Go! Go!)
(La-da-da da da da da)

[Verse 8]
I messed up my entire life because I got high
(Go! Go! Go! Go!)
I lost my kids and wife because I got high
(Say what? Say what? Say what? Say what?)
Now I'm sleeping on the sidewalk and I know why (Why man?)

[Chorus]
'Cause I got high
Because I got high
Because I got high
(La-da-da da da da da)

[Verse 9]
I'm-a stop singing this song because I'm high (Backaaa)
(Raise the ceiling, baby!)

(Bring it back, bring it back)
And if I don't sell one copy, I'll know why (why man?)

[Chorus]
