Whiskey & Pills Lyrics - Kings & Queens Of The Underground - Billy Idol

The sun you know it rots my brain 

The way I walk is with a cane 

The wind it blows it takes me in 

And times it turns it makes me thin 

My life is going down the drain 

My wife you know she went insane 

My kids are messed up in the brain 

But when I'm high I feel no shame 

When my mind won't hold still 

When I feel the sickening chills 

When I feel I've had my fill 

And every voice I hear is shrill 

I calm myself with whiskey and pills 

I calm myself with whiskey and pills 

The people I know 

Their number's changed 

Their view of me is rearranged 

The way I see they're really strange 

I've got no reason to play their games, yeah 

They look at me with eyes a stare 

I look at them but I don't care 

I tell them all, what's fair is fair 

And here and there and everywhere 

When my mind won't hold still 

When I feel the sickly chills 

When I feel I've had my fill 

And every voice I hear is shrill 

I call upon my friends 

Whiskey and pills 

I call upon my friends 

Whiskey and pills 

Ooh, ooh, whiskey and pills 

When you see me 

I'm a-roaming around 

My face hits the pavement 

Yes I'm on the ground 

Turn me around, see if I'm okay 

Check out this smile 

That's on my face 

I never thought I was gonna die 

Until I stared into God's eyes 

He said to me "well, come on son, 

better shape up boy, your days are done" 

Up my mind I got the chills 

Even though he talked with skill 

Of the voice I heard the shrill 

It was a sound I had to kill 

I turned around and grabbed 

The whiskey and pills 

Can't say goodbye to 

Whiskey and pills 

I call upon my friends 

Whiskey and pills 

I calm myself with 

Whiskey and pills
