What you gonna do? Time's caught up with you
   Now you wait your turn, you know there's no return
   Take your written rules, you join the other fools
   Turn to something new, now it's killing you
  
   First it was the bomb, Vietnam napalm
   Disillusioning, you push the needle in
   From life you escape, reality's that way
   Colours in your mind satisfy your time
  
   Oh you, you know you must be blind
   To do something like this
   To take the sleep that you don't know
   You're giving Death a kiss,
   Oh, little fool now
  
   Your mind is full of pleasure
   Your body's looking ill
   To you it's shallow leisure
   So drop the acid pill, don't stop to think now
  
   You're having a good time baby
   But that won't last
   Your mind's all full of things
   You're living too fast
   go out enjoy yourself
   Don't bottle it in
   You need someone to help you
   To stick the needle in, yeah
  
   Now you know the scene, your skin starts turning green
   Your eyes no longer seeing life's reality
   Push the needle in, face death's sickly grin
   Holes are in your skin, caused by deadly pin
  
   Head starts spinning 'round, you fall down to the ground
   Feel your body heave, Death's hands starts to weave
   It's too late to turn, you don't want to learn
   Price of life you cry, now you're gonna die!
