Drugs


Probably shouldn't be stoned as fuck

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 shit and feel your troubles fade away?
I guess I've got to make a change
I'm not sober, I'm just over trying 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 I've gotta look for a new way to survive

I've been running on empty and calling it strength
I've reopened old wounds 'cause I won't take a break, no
I know I've got to make a change
I won't hurt myself or go through Hell
Tryna prove my place

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

All the wine and the weed just won't heal my disease
The drugs don't work, no
Ooh, ooh, ooh
And my friends never call unless they have the need
And my friends don't call me
Ooh, ooh, 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
Seems like I've gotta look for a new way to survive

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

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
