Doug Midgley
One-hundred-fifty pounds of used to be
Crying 'bout how good it is to be free
Talking like a wannabe
​
I got my drugs today
And I'm getting better they say
Yeah
​
Sliding like I'm on ice
Cold like steel, sharp like knives
Don't say it again, I've already heard it twice
​
I got my drugs today
They say I'm getting better
All I wanna hear is they say I'm getting better
​
Taxes, bills, P.M.S.,
Dentist drills and driver's tests
All keep me from being my absolute best
​
But I got my drugs today
I'm getting better they say
They say I'm getting better
​
Backwards, sideways, upside down
Got my smile turned into a frown
Like I'm spinning 'round and 'round
​
I got my drugs today
I'm getting better
Getting better they say
​
But I still get this indescribable feeling
That I keep sliding backwards
Tell me, can you hear it? Am I sliding?
Oh man, I hope I'm not sliding backwards
​
Anyway, I got my drugs today
I'm getting better
Getting better
Getting better
Getting better they say
