"It's OK Until The Drugs Stop Working" lyrics

Teenage kicks, with messy kids
A lot of love, and shrugs, a local insurrection
And what it was, is what it is
I have to smile when she offers me protection

It's all fun until the ashtray's full
You call the man, but the man won't come at all
Here comes the fall

And it's all good until the birds start chirping
The strangers leave, and the drugs stop working
It's all good until the dawn prevails and what was in the mail
Is at your door again
And you're alone again

We feel good, but then we should
Because we pay, to feel, to feel like we're perfection
A cheeky half, a proper laugh, and it goes dark
And I dance with my reflection

It's all fun until the sun comes up
You call the man but he won't wake up at all
Sunday morning call

And it's all good until the birds start chirping
The strangers leave, and the drugs stop working
It's all good until the dawn prevails and what was in the mail
Is at your door again

The look of lust becomes a beast of burden
You're paranoid and peeking through the curtains
It's way too late now to go to bed, you're in your head
And on your own again
You're on your own again

Na na na na na...

And it's all fun until the birds start chirping
(Birds start chirping)
The strangers leave and the drugs stop working
(Drugs stop working)
It's all good until the dawn prevails and what was in the mail
Is at your door again

The look of lust becomes a beast of burden
(Beast of burden)
You're paranoid and peeking through the curtain
(Through the curtain)
It's way too late now to go to bed, you're in your head
And on your own again
You're all alone again
