It's great to be young
Lord, but did You ever try
I was talking to sweet thing
Hear all the mothers cry
You're not packing with angels now
And it might not be such a bad idea
Some say, "I will never die"
You, you are my heroin
You, you are my heroin
There are stories of bad luck, yeah
Didn't anyone tell you
You, you are my heroin
Some say, "It's a vacation"
I'll just call it a celebration
God, won't stop at my station
If it's true that you doubt it
That life was a lousy substitute?
Go ask Alice when she's ten feet tall
To turn Your sick soul inside out
You, you are my heroin
You, you are my heroin
Couldn't bear to pass you by
There are stories of bad luck, yeah
You, you are my heroin
Come see how my roses die
Go ask Alice when she's ten feet tall
There are jokers and tokers
Here's some pills and you ought to try
You, you are my heroin
You, you are my heroin
You keep saying, "Kick it, quit it"
You, you are my heroin
You, you are my heroin
If the Devil walks my way
You know that it's true
But they come to bless us all
You, you are my heroin
That's what all the bitches say
It's funky down in the gutter
My home is filled with pain
She said, "Hang your horses high"
We were looking for Heaven
You, you are my heroin
It's great to be young
You, you are my heroin
So that the world can watch You die
It's great to be young
Home is where I live inside
In your undertaker's suit
But they come to bless us all
Welcome into the garden, Sarah
If it's true that you doubt it
If I never went home again
