(Riff 2 w/)
 
a good night, the best in a long time
a new friend turned me on to an old favorate
nothing better than a dealer who's high
be high, convince them to buy

[Verse 2]
(Riff 1 w/ lyrics)
seems so sick to the hypocrite norm
running their boring drills
but we are an elite race of our own
the stoners, junkies, and freaks
 
[Verse 3]
(Riff 2 w/ lyrics)
are you happy?  i am man
content and fully aware
money, statues, nothing to me
'cause your life's empty and bare
 
[Chorus]
 yeah.....                                what's my drug of choice?

you can't understand a user's mind
