lyrics

Once a day is called a "habit"
Twice a day is called a "vice"
Thrice a day is called an "obsession"
And more than that is called "addiction"

So find me here within this house
Somewhere between once and thrice
And help me stop from going again
Before I'm hooked for life
Drugs are bad and I don't need them
I like the way they make me feel
Less alive than before I took them
Less alive before I ever saw them

Once a day is called a "habit"
Twice a day is called a "vice"
Thrice a day is called an "obsession"
And more than that is called "addiction"

And somehow I still have the feeling
That "less alive" is a blessing
"I'm not an addict" I tell myself
In many ways I'm not
Drugs are bad and I don't need them
I like the way they make me feel
I know that I shouldn't do this
And I just need to stop

Once a day is called a "habit"
Twice a day is called a "vice"
Thrice a day is called an "obsession"
And more than that is called "addiction"
