Lyrics The Drugs Don't Work (Demo) - The Verve

All this talk of growing old
It's getting me down, my love
Like a cat in a bag, waiting to drown
I know I'm comin' down
And I hope you're thinking of me
As you lay down inside

Now the drugs don't work
They just make me worse
And I know I'll see your face again

'Cause baby, ooh, if heaven calls, I'm coming, too
And baby, ooh, if heaven calls, I'm coming with you

But I know I'm on a losing streak
I passed down by your street
And if you wanna star, then give me a shout
And I'll come runnin' down, you know I will

But the drugs don't work
They just make me worse
And I know I'll see your face again

'Cause baby, ooh, if heaven calls, I'm coming, too
And baby, ooh, if heaven calls, I'm coming too
Just like you said, I'm better dead, when I ain't got you
Just like you said, I'm better dead, when I ain't got you
But if you wanna show, then just let me know
When I'll sing in your ear again

But the drugs don't work
They just make me worse
And I know I'll see your face again
Like a cat in a bag, waiting to drown
I know I'm comin' down

Now the drugs don't work
They just make me worse
And I know I'll see your face again
