Hooked On Love

Hooked on love I saw a twelve year old, he had a plastic bag Another young man sucking on butane gas I saw them reaching for a hand to hold The next minute they were both stone cold (chorus 1) Don't abuse your body Better use your brain This generation's going insane Better hooked on love (Hooked on love) That's a better drug (Hooked on love) (chorus 1) I found a young girl lying in a pool of blood She had the mark of needles and a lack of love I saw her friends who told her 'She's a fool to try' But never dream she was bound to die (chorus 1) And when the street sharp man next comes around You better keep your head, you better stand your ground No matter what the pressure, never make a deal He might touch but he never can feel (chorus 1) And then I saw you cruising' through the wild west end Can't change the habits of a lifetime debt Now you're moving closer to the killing floor You're half dead but you need to score (chorus 2) So don't get your kicks For too high a price The next time won't be so nice Better hooked on love (Hooked on love) That's a better drug (Hooked on love) If you're feeling bored without a thing to do You want to be somebody then it's up to you I ain't trying to tell you how to live your life You might run but you never can hide (chorus 1
