Stick the needle into your arm

Do anything that does you harm

I see you falling down on the floor

I see you staggering out the door



You tried it and you liked it and you thought that

You could take it

Until you realized you couldn't escape it

How far you fall you don't know

Until you're at the bottom with a nose full of blow

You don't know what you're to me

To see you laying there so helplessly

Get yourself together, before it's too late

Or a life of pain will be your fate



You don't care about anyone

Just so long as you've had your fun

But not until you get your fix

And now you're taking a deep six



You tried it and you liked it and you thought that

You could take it

Until you realized you couldn't escape it

How far you fall you don't know

Until you're at the bottom with a nose full of blow

You don't know what you're to me

To see you laying there so helplessly

Get yourself together, before it's too late

Or a life of pain will be your fate



You tried it and you liked it and you thought that

You could take it

Until you realized you couldn't escape it

How far you fall you don't know

Until you're at the bottom with a nose full of blow

You don't know what you're to me

To see you laying there so helplessly

Get yourself together, before it's too late

Or a life of pain will be your fate



What's at stake
