NOFX - High Achievers Lyrics
Heroin has stigma like meth and crack cocaine
Drug users aren't all losers, they can't all be insane
But sanity is not a trait of extraordinary man
Sometimes it's drugs not necessity that't the mother of invention
So did queen Victoia and the marquis de sade
Siegmund Freud did his best work on coca medicine
So did grover Cleveland and Thomas Edison
Would Einstein have split the atom?
Would Carl Sagen have pondered space?
When the smartest people are doin' drugs it makes the world a much better place
Steve jobs and bill gates took acid and changed technology
The Beatles' trips led to Lucy, Rita, and Elanor Rigby
Without drugs would munch's scream have really been such a fight? (that's not so scary)
Would bonds have hit those hundreds of homers?
Would lance have ever won in France?
When a record's breaking, an athlete's takin'
A drug to keep performance enhanced
So you guys are trying to tell me that if i take drugs i'm gonna be smarter?
We're not saying it's gonna make you smarter, but it might make you more interesting
Aaron Sorkin wrote his best while he was smokin' crack
Amphetamines were the favorite means of ayn rand and kerouac
Charlie dickens told the tale on opiates we know
So did burrows, Huxley, Oscar Wilde, and Edgar Allen Poe
If everyone was sober, could you call this country free?
Would we maintain our ethics and ingenuity?
Progressive thought doesn't happen a lot in a dry society
When everyone is doin' some it makes the world a better place to be
So smoke a joint, or snort a line, or drop some lsd
Use a bong, a glass pipe, or go strait to an i.v.
It's a simple case of better living in modern chemistry
When everybody is doin' drugs it makes the world a better place to be
When everybody is doin' drugs it makes the world a better place to be
So quit na, and screw aa, and fuck sobriety
When everybody is doin' drugs it makes the world a better place to be

I will never surrender.
Also, wait... It was a kiwi that split the atom.
Tim Armstrong has one of the best voices ever
I feel like the "mother of invention" line is a quick shot at Zappa.
Burroughs, not Burrows.
These are the good apples in the bunch that nobody talks it is true about true what they say about not letting the Bad Apple spoil the bunch... if that was the case all cops wood be racist... And all politicians would be crooked as hell... Not to let either of those two groups people get let completely... But still not fair stereotype an entire group on the actions and beliefs on just a few certain confused and misinformed or uneducated... and sometimes some of those filled with hate individuals... Like I said I can be applicable to any stereotype... plus who are we to judge... Live and Let Live and if there's some question for doing nothing but making life better... More power to me
Sounds like a band who writes songs for children's TV
it's a musical :)
Hello you bunch of junkies, my country is bleeding its heart out because of war on drugs. Your president wants to build a wall across the border. That might stop the drug cartels, but would that STOP YOU??? I really doubt it
