Drugs Songtext
von Joy Oladokun

I probably shouldn′t be stoned as -

The drugs don't work, oh, I can′t get high
Oh, doctor, doctor, find me a new way to survive

What happened to the good old days?
Where you could take a hit of that good -
And feel your troubles fade away?

I guess I've got to make a change
I'm not sober, I′m just over tryin′ to smoke away the rage

The drugs don't work
Oh, I can′t get high
Oh, doctor, doctor, find me a new way to survive

And my friends don't call
Unless they need a ride
Oh, Father, Father, feels like I′m barely getting by

Seems like l've gotta look for a new way to survive

I′ve been running on empty
And calling it strength (ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh)
I've reopened old wounds 'cause I won′t take a break, no


I know l′ve got to make a change
I won't hurt myself or go through - tryna prove my place

The drugs don′t work (the drugs don't work)
Oh, I can′t get high (oh, I can't get high)
Oh, doctor, doctor, find me a new way to survive

And my friends don′t call (and my friends don't call me)
Unless they need a ride (unless they need a ride)
Oh, Father, Father, feels like I'm barely getting by

Seems like l′ve gotta look for a new way to survive

All the wine and the weed (the drugs don′t work, no)
Just won't heal my disease
(Ooh) oh

And my friends never call (and my friends don′t call me)
Unless they have the need
(Ooh)

The drugs don't work (the drugs don′t work, no)
Oh, I can't get high (oh, I can′t get high)
Oh, doctor, doctor, find me a new way to survive

And my friends don't call (and my friends don't call me)
Unless they need a ride (unless they need a ride)
Oh, Father, Father, feels like I′m barely getting by


The drugs don′t work (the drugs don't work, no)
Oh, I can′t get high (oh, I can't get high)
Oh, doctor, doctor, find me a new way to survive

And my friends don′t call (and my friends don't call me)
Unless they need a ride (unless they need a ride)
Oh, Father, Father, feels like I′m barely getting by (by)

Seems like l've gotta look for a new way to survive
Seems like l've gotta look for a new way to
Survive

Smoke break
