Lyrics
Everybody Wants To get High
Ac 2008 Bill gaunce
Oh trace the time, time sublime
Backed into another corner
Faced the worst, hit the dirt
Dressed in black like a Sunday mourner
Over head,
the sound of freedom rings out
Over heard . . .
Everybody wants to go to heaven
But nobody wants to die
Everybody wants a piece of freedom
Everybody just wants to get high
Can't turn it right, or re-write
Forced at last to face the piper
Dragged from the mud, paid in cold blood
We are indebted to the viper
Over time,
Everybody seems to forget
Over heard . . .
Everybody wants to go to heaven
But nobody wants to die
Everybody wants a piece of freedom
Everybody just wants to get high
