I Still Get High
(Spencer Gibb)
What have I got to do to stop you talking?
When my back's against the wall
Is it half as much fun to love
as putting me down ?
I still get high (x4)
Tell me all your days are empty
But you still hang around
Well I hate to leave you standing,
but I found a way out
you know I found a way
I still get high (x4)
And I would forgive you
If you needed it bad (needed it bad)
I'd tell you my secret babe
But you know, you know it's all that I have
Song Info: [5:53]:
"Have you ever in your life met one person you can just say is an outstandingly
unbelievable fucking prick?
Well I have, and that's who I wrote this song about. He was my ex- girlfriend's boss (the girl from songs 1 and 3) and he really went out of his way to make my life hell, because of some freaky love obsession thing he had for her.
One of the things he did was make a big deal out of the fact that he had found out that
I had done a lot of drugs earlier in my life, something I was very honest with her about, but it didn't stop him from telling her
I probably had all kinds of diseases and problems. This asshole used to be a doctor too!
So trying to calm her down and let her know he didn't know what he was talking about was a nightmare.
That story just scrapes the surface of his perpetual need to fuck with my life.
So I wrote this for him, wherever he is I hope he's happy. Still really love the song though and it's probably the best sounding song on here.
Listening to it again makes me want to start playing it." - Spencer Gibb
