lyrics
everything is exactly right as i walk around here drunk every night
with an open container from seven eleven
it's st. ides heaven
i've been out haunting the neighborhood
and everybody can see i'm no good
when i'm walking out there between parked cars
with my head full of stars
high on amphetamines
the moon is a light bulb breaking
it'll go around with anyone
but it won't come down for anyone
you think you know what brings me down
that i want those things you could never allow
you see me smile and you think it's a frown
turned upside down
cus everyone is fucking pro
and they've all got answers from troubles we've known
and they've all gotta say what you should, and shouldn't do
but they don't have a clue
high on amphetamines
the moon is a light bulb breaking
it'll go around with anyone
but it won't come down for anyone
