Seems like these are tunes about the human condition so putting those kids of tunes here
ever since World War 2
Everyone said they understood
what with all he'd been through
He'd drink his boiler makers
one shot at a time
'cause he had only one good arm
the other left by the Rhine
Yeah, I guess you could call him an addict
I suppose that may be
but most called him a hero those days
he's still a hero to me
My father loved them cigarettes
preferred those Old Golds
Every other ad on the TV
guess what they sold
Even after a heart attack
he just couldn't quit
Hell, even the doctor smoked
that didn't help a bit
By definition, he was an addict
and I know that its true
What the real shame of it is
even today it's cool
My buddy was a river boat gunner
over in Viet Nam
He collected a lot of shrapnel
from the viet cong
They pumped him full of morphine
so it wouldn't hurt so bad
he came home with an honorable discharge
but it wasn't all he had
If you guessed he was an addict
then you'd be “Right On”
there was always lots of heroin
and no prescription
(chord change – rise to G)
just take a good look around
and you'll see what I mean
from interactive online gaming
fantasy football teams
Prescription meds to cell sexting
the list goes on and on
online porn and gambling
sadomasochistic doms
Everyone's addicted to something
and we know its not right
so why not get on board with one thing
get addicted to life
… just get addicted to life!
