I am the new all-American drug,
and I the poison screaming through your blood.
I am the great all American high.
I am the fear turned to hate in your eyes.
And you are insatiable.
Don’t let no one tell you the dose you deserve!
Give it a chance—I swear it won’t hurt!
Don’t let no one tell you the dose that you need!
Now open wide to take a full load of me!
I am the real all-American dream,
and I’m the response to the call of your screams.
I am born of the American soul.
Yeah, I am you, and you are out of control!
You are insatiable—
ravenous—bottomless—desperate, and implacable.
Don’t let no one tell you the dose you deserve!
Give it a chance—I swear it won’t hurt!
Don’t let no one tell you the dose that you need!
Now open wide to take a full load of me!
I am the face of the nation revealed.
I am your wounds that have all never healed.
I am your future, still born and fucked.
I am the dope you slam to self-destruct!
[ one and a half totally wiz guitar solos ]
Don’t let no one tell you the dose you deserve!
Give it a chance—I swear it won’t hurt!
Don’t let no one tell you the dose that you need!
Now open wide to take a full load of me!
Don’t let no one tell you the dose you require!
I’m everything that your heart desires!
Don’t let no one tell you what does you can take!
Just close your eyes—there’s no need to wait!
Yeah, lay back, baby—this is gonna be great!
