Hoodoo Gurus - Get High! Lyrics

Everybody wants to buy a one-way ticket to paradise
Everybody's had enough of too much work and self sacrifice
They wanna get higher
They wanna get...

Everybody wants to take a tiny pill they call happiness
They'd eat 'em by the dozen and they'd never even think about side effects
They wanna get higher
They wanna get high
They just wanna get high

I would never try to tell you I'm any better than all the rest
I'm looking for a panacea, so far nothing can pass the test
I wanna get higher
I wanna get high
I just wanna get high
Someday's, you just wanna get high
I wanna get
You wanna get
They wanna get (higher)
He wants to get
She wants to get
They all wanna get high

We wanna get
Yeah, we need to get
We just better get one thing straight
There are no easy answers for all of us
But when they discover one
I'll tell you I'll be the first on that bus

I wanna get higher
I wanna get
I gotta get higher
And I'm gonna get high
I just wanna get high
Someday's you just wanna get high
Well these days
We just wanna get high
And always
Wanna kiss all our cares bye-bye
Bye-bye
I wanna get
You wanna get
They wanna get (higher)
He wants to get
She wants to get
We're all gonna get
High
