Same Old Same Old

On the hill in the sacred stones they’re
Popping pills while they’re on their smartphones
Feel the earth’s energy, con-cen-trate
While somone’s yelling «have you got any ket mate?»
I don’t mind, you can take what you want
If it makes you happy and it get’s you off but
Just be safe, aware of the side effects
Ten years on, your bladder is a fucking mess
New dawn, new drug
New high, another mug
Same old, same old, same old thing
Getting wrecked in the search for meaning
Drop out, tune in
Feel the rush as your mind spins
Altered reality, chemical flight
Nothing much changes and the kids are alright
And I just don’t understand you mate, 'cause
You paid good money just to get through the gate
And there’s so much to see, smell, feel, hear, taste
So whydya want to spend it in a comatose state?
Lotus eaters, living on soma
Missing the point — until it’s all over
And nobody needs the inevitable drama
Trip to the First Aid tent — bad karma
New dawn, new drug
New high, another mug
Same old, same old, same old thing
Getting wrecked in the search for meaning
Drop out, tune in
Feel the rush as your mind spins
Altered reality, chemical flight
Nothing much changes and the kids are alright
Up to you how you spend your time
How you blow your cash, how you mess up your mind
Experience the dislocation
But all good things in moderation
Live in the moment, stay in the zone
Make good memories, stick em on your phone
There’s nothing wrong with trying on the hat
But don’t be a zombie, don’t be a twat
New dawn, new drug
New high, another mug
Same old, same old, same old thing
Getting wrecked in the search for meaning
Drop out, tune in
Feel the rush as your mind spins
Altered reality, chemical flight
Nothing much changes and the kids are alright
