The People’s Drug

[Verse 1]
Got a stupid job, but it's fair money
I got a brand new car but I can't drive
I've got a sweetheart, I call her honey
And I've also got a wife
People say that they're depressed
But they go out, they're so well dressed
Now what is it that makes them feel that way?
Can't get it in no drug store
No man's an island, that's for sure
And it looks like the world just run out of things to say

[Chorus]
So now, give me some of the people's drug
Give me some of the people's drug
Whatever makes you feel that good
I'll take it like I know I should
So, give me some of the people, people's drug, whoa
Give me some of the people's drug (Drug)

[Verse 2]
Pick me up and take me to a movie
Give me an ending that I can understand
Sell me a rocking soundtrack, make it groovy
Give me backstage passes for the band
People always whine whine whine
Shut up and pay the fine fine fine
What's the difference anyway
Between being safe and being rad
When the big joke is we've all been had?
You don't get to read the news in USA Today
(Did you know that?)

[Chorus]
Give me some of the people's drug
Well, give me some of the people's drug
Whatever makes you feel that good
I'll take it like I know I should
So, give me some of the people, people's drug, whoa
Give me some of the people's drug (Drug)

[Verse 3]
God, it's a wacky race we're running
I must atone for all my sins
God grant me some of what you're giving
I heard you don't need needles, don't need pins
I'll pay prescription, where's the bill?
I thought it was a bitter pill
What's it matter what I feel?
Take the dog and take the wife
Show me how to lead a better life
The price you people pay, well it's gotta be a steal (Alright)

[Chorus]
Give me some of the people's drug
Give me some of the people's drug
Whatever makes you feel that good
I'll take it like I know I should
So, give me some of the people, people's drug, whoa
So, give me some of the people, people's drug, whoa
Give me some of the people's drug (Drug, drug, drug)
(Alright)
