It doesn't do what it says on the tin
That's just a line meant to lure you in
And once you start it won't take long to get its hooks in your skin
It doesn't do what it says on the tin

And your background doesn't matter
Rich man, poor man, business man, thief
I'm sure you think that you know better
Like the thousands before who had the same belief

It doesn't do what it says on the tin
That's just a line meant to draw you in
And then you'll see that the smallest print was the most dangerous thing
It doesn't do what it says on the tin

You can buy it on street corners
Or order your posion from across a bar
Get it on repeat from your doctor
Track down a bookie, they're never too far

Solo Chorus

Bridge
They call it a fix, it only leaves you broken
You won't find release in whatever you're tokin'
It's all pie in the sky
Chasing that high

It doesn't do what it says on the tin
That's just a line meant to reel you in
Too late you'll find the only way to stop was to never begin
It doesn't do what it says on the tin
