I was right in the middle of a big idea
(When the drugs kick in, when the drugs kick in)
I forgot everything right then and there
(When the drugs kick in, when the drugs kick in)
For the last year or so, that’s how it’s been
(When the drugs kick in, when the drugs kick in)
I’ve tried, and I’ve tried but the drugs always win
(When the drugs kick in, when the drugs kick in)

When the drugs kick in
When the drugs kick in
Here I go, here I go, here I go again
(When the drugs kick in, when the drugs kick in)
I'm goin’ down I know, but I'm goin’ down slow
(When the drugs kick in, when the drugs kick in)
When the drugs
Kick in
Yeah, yeah, yeah

I had this dream, yeah, I used to dream
(When the drugs kick in, when the drugs kick in)
I’d leave no sound unheard, no sight unseen
(When the drugs kick in, when the drugs kick in)
But I heard lies and deception, saw heartbreak and rejection
(When the drugs kick in, when the drugs kick in)
Just an uncast vote in a fixed election
(When the drugs kick in, when the drugs kick in)

When the drugs kick in
When the drugs kick in
Here I go, here I go, here I go again
(When the drugs kick in, when the drugs kick in)
I'm goin’ down I know, but I'm goin’ down slow
(When the drugs kick in, when the drugs kick in)
When the drugs
Kick in
Yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm a jet plane baby, movin’ coast to coast
I'm a part-time lover, I'm a full time ghost
And the tunnel of love is the tunnel of life
And I leave on the lights when I go to sleep at night

When the drugs kick in
When the drugs kick in
Here I go, here I go, here I go again
(When the drugs kick in, when the drugs kick in)
I'm goin’ down I know, but I'm goin’ down slow
(When the drugs kick in, when the drugs kick in)
When the drugs
Kick in
When the drugs
Kick in
Yeah, yeah, yeah

(When the drugs kick in, when the drugs kick in)
Yeah, yeah
(When the drugs kick in, when the drugs kick in)
Yeah, yeah
