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 wifePeople 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 ran out of things to saySo 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 shouldSo, give me some of the people, people's drug
Give me some of the people's drug, drugPick 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 bandPeople always whine, whine, whine
Shut up and pay the fine, fine, fine
What's the difference anyway
Between being safe and being radWhen the big joke is we've all been had
You don't get to read the news in U.S.A. Today
You know thatGive 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 shouldSo give me some of the people, people's drug
Give me some of the people's drug, drugPeople guitarGod, 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 pinsI'll pay prescription, where's the bill
I thought it was a bitter pill
What's it matter what I feelTake 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 stealGive 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 shouldSo, give me some of the people, people's drug
Give me some of the people's, people's drug
Give me some of the people's drug, drug, drug, drug, alright
