My Legal High

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
Well, I was hooked on Scrumpy Jack
When I was just a lad
Chucking rocks at passing trains
The only buzz I had

I was hooked on harder stuff
In just a year or two
But the strangest addiction
I ever had was you

[Verse 2]
When I was just a teenager
I went to park and I
Sat on swings and roundabouts
And stared up at the sky

Now that age of innocence
Is compensated by
Late in life
I've found my legal high

[Pre-Chorus]
Vodka, gin, and whisky
Even strongest Belgian beer
Don't give me withdrawals
Like I get when you're not here

[Chorus]
And I'm shaking like that skinny dipper
Without a towel to dry
When I don't get
My fix of legal high

It'll make you look out window
Write a poem to the sky
And thank the stars
You've found your legal high

[Verse 3]
Smoking your first cigarette
You're pretty quickly hooked
Both nicotine and alcohol
Grim Reaper's got you booked

Cocaine, speed, and heroin
They'll only turn you blue
But the worst kind of overdose
Has to be you

[Verse 4]
Now we're much, much older
We visit cemetery
Place that bunch of flowers for friend
That we no longer see

The way they died so wastefully
Is not for you and I
'Cause finally
We've found our legal high

[Pre-Chorus]
Vodka, gin, and whisky
Even strongest Belgian beer
Don't give me withdrawals
Like I get when you're not here

[Chorus]
And I'm shaking like that skinny dipper
Without a towel to dry
When I don't get
My fix of legal high

It'll make you look out window
Write a poem to the sky
And thank the stars
You've found your legal high
