I get up early in the morning   It's up and out with the sun   Spending my day making natural highs   And in the evening when my work is done   I make a phone call from the hotel   Speak to my woman each day   I tell my lady that I'm missing her   And I hope she feels the same   At least she knows that I'm not   Sharing out our love   With the midnight drug      You spend your day in an in-joke   Pouring your life in a glass of ice   And no one's laughing but the monkey in you   Paranoia for the highest price   You make a phone call from the hotel   Spending your life in the night   The kind of women who don't come for free   But then I guess they know you'll pay the price   If they can keep you up   They know you've got what turns them on   The midnight drug         How many times must we tell you   Just how much we care   You must know how we love you   But we can't even meet half-way   Well I've got something to tell you   If you can only take it in   I think you're worthy of a better cause   If you can just stop looking for   What you never get enough of   The midnight drug         Your kind of sugar is a sweet club   I like my sugar in tea   You spend your life going faster   There's no surviving if you crash at speed   Now, I'm not saying that I'm wrong or right   But that the truth is plain to see   I get my kicks from my friends and their love   It's the kind of love that comes for free   They're the kind of friends   That you don't find when you go looking for   They only pick you up then let you fall   'Till you come back for more   Of the midnight drug
