You're a Drug

[Verse 1] Falling asleep at the helm of an ocean liner (I fear you, I truly fear you) Passing the time with nothing on your mind but fire (I fear you, I do) [Pre-Chorus 1] Say, lady, won't you sit right down to talk (About yourself, about lives you've loved and lost) It seems that you've learned to run before you walk (I fear you, just can't get near you) [Verse 2] Speaking in tongues at the top of your lungs in your apartment (I fear you, I truly fear you) Whistling once at a dog who can't see through the darkness (I fear you, I do) [Pre-Chorus 2] Strict system of nauseating faith (Catching you with your hands in the cookie jar) Maybe it's me, but it all seems such a waste (I fear you, that's all that I do) [Chorus] Nineteen-year-old girl, step out and have your fun You can save the world when you're 21 Who am I to say how it is or isn't done? Baby, you're a drug I can't take advantage of (I can't take advantage of) [Verse 3] Tell the police to arrest all the sheep she's counting (I fear you, I truly fear you) Disturbing her dreams is a necessary means to end it (I fear you, I do) [Pre-Chorus 3] It was a party until frat boys tore up the place (Pumping Billy Idol's "Eyes Without a Face") Comforting her friend's sob story embarrassment (Oh I fear you, oh I fear you, oh I fear you) [Chorus] Nineteen-year-old girl, step out and have your fun You can save the world when you're 21 Who am I to say how it is or isn't done? Baby, you're a drug I can't take advantage of (I can't take advantage of)
