Lyrics Ready for the High - The Wombats

You can scream like a banshee and still nothing comes
You can buy a heart balloon and watch the sky grow dull
I've said it all before, I am ready for the high

'Cause nothing works worse than the weekend fix
I put the money in the slots and then they fell to bits
I've said it all before, I am ready for the high

I'm ready for the high life
A kiss without a fist fight
A bang without the dynamite
A place I want to stay
I always think in extremes
I should be thinking moonbeams
I should be pulling you close to me
And not explaining why
I am ready for the high

Maybe Generation X are the chosen ones
They've got everything they need beneath their aching thumbs
I'll say it all again, I am ready for the high

Because underneath the low there's a lower part
A place I only like to go when we come apart
I'll say it all again, I am ready for the high

I'm ready for the high life
A kiss without a fist fight
A bang without the dynamite
A place I want to stay
I always think in extremes
I should be thinking moonbeams
I should be pulling you close to me
And not explaining why
I am ready for the high
I am ready for the high

I'm ready for the high life
A kiss without a fist fight
A bang without the dynamite
A place I want to stay
I always think in extremes
I should be thinking moonbeams
I should be pulling you close to me
And not explaining why

I am ready for the high

(I am ready for the high)

I am ready for the high
