<poem>This is kinda weird | |||
We've been sitting here | |||
In our street clothes | |||
Scared of ??? | |||
Before we make a move | |||
I have to ask you | |||
Girl, do you wanna get | |||
Wanna get, wanna get | |||
Girl, do you wanna get | |||
Wanna get high? | |||
We won't need to think | |||
Or fuss around with | |||
Credit card statements | |||
Ugliness melts away | |||
I normally abstain but | |||
You've got something | |||
Girl, do you wanna get | |||
Wanna get, wanna get | |||
Girl, do you wanna get | |||
Wanna get high? | |||
Girl, do you wanna get | |||
Wanna get, wanna get | |||
Girl, do you wanna get | |||
Wanna get high?</poem> | |||
