Well it’s a hard, hard job keeping everybody high
Well it’s a hard, hard job keeping everybody high
Well it’s a hard job keeping everybody high
You know what, we still gotta try
Well it’s a hard, hard job keeping everybody high
Well it’s a hard, hard job keeping everybody stoned
Well it’s a hard, hard job keeping everybody stoned
Well it’s a hard job keeping everybody stoned
You know what, I can’t do it alone
Well it’s a hard, hard job keeping everybody stoned
Well a man came up to me
He said buddy can you help me please
You see I’ve got to catch a bus to Timonuim
Where is that? (I don’t know)
A lady came up to me on the street
She said I need $5. 20
You see I got to get my baby some baby formula
Baby formula? (Yeah, baby formula)
I said we all want to help
All those who can’t help themselves
We got to do what we got to do to help the people get by by by
And it’s a hard, hard job keeping everybody high
Well it’s a hard, hard job keeping everybody lit
Well it’s a hard, hard job keeping everybody lit
Well it’s a hard job keeping everybody lit
You know what, we gotta try it
It’s a hard, hard job keeping everybody lit
Well, I went to see the doc
I went in for my check up
He said, try some of these, man
People like them a lot (what you got?)
Well, the army is on the lam
Yeah, they’re in Afghanistan
They’re trying to corner the market
On that opium (I want some)
See, we all want to help
All those who can’t help themselves
We got to do what we got to do to help the people get by by by
And it’s a hard, hard job keeping everybody high
Well it’s a hard, hard job keeping everybody high
Well it’s a hard, hard job keeping everybody high
