Used To Get High Lyrics - John Butler Trio

I used to get high for a living 

Believing everything that i saw on my tv 

I used to get high for a living 

Eating all the bullshit food that they sold me 

I used to get high for a living 

Thinking that my destiny was out of my control 

I used to get high for a living 

There's lots of different reasons and i'll tell you so 

Super size, large fries, big mac, coca cola 

Go on man, pick your poison 

Speed, weed, ecstacy, LSD 

Man, it don't bother me cos we're all on something 

Caffeine, cigarettes, alcohol 

You know i'm clawing at the walls trying to get my fix 

Prozac, ADD tablets, coke, smack 

Now you know i am turning tricks cos

I used to get high for a living 

Believing everything that i saw on my tv 

I used to get high for a living 

Eating all the bullshit food that they sold me 

Yeah, that they sold me 

Escape, can't wait all trying to get away 

From this place man that we're feeling 

Can't deal, can't feel what's real 

Lyrics 

All trying to conceal all this time we're stealing 

No doubt, the route you're on 

Can't find the clout that you've been needing 

'Til then my friend you must contend 

With the monster that you're feeding

I used to get high for a living 

Believing everything that i saw on my tv 

I used to get high for a living 

Eating all the bullshit food that they sold me 

I used to get high for a living 

Thinking that my destiny was out of my control 

I used to get high for a living 

There's lots of different reasons and i'll tell you so 

Got links of the cheney 

Getting crazy, getting lazy with their foreign relations 

Starting wars, closing doors 

Trying to bring about one quicker, man, revelations 

Economic rational calling fouls with the workers 

Just trying to make it pay 

Cost cutting, head butting 

Big business do what they like and you do what they say 

What's wrong get along, just prolong all the thoughts 

You got going on, on the inside 

Appease, stand at ease, just try to please 

All the apathy that you're trying to hide 

How now brown cow 

Did we get from this standing place... 

And now we're kneeling 

'Til then my friend you must contend with the monster that you're feeding 

I used to get high for a living 

Believing everything that i saw on my tv 

I used to get high for a living 

Eating all the bullshit food that they sold me 

I used to get high for a living 

Thinking that my destiny was out of my control 

I used to get high for a living 

There's lots of different reasons and i'll tell you so
