Junkie

Steve Vai

I need some junk

To shoot in my vein

Would you give me some

To relieve the pain?



These city streets

Are drivin' me insane

I tried laundry detergent

But it's not the same



I need some food

To stuff in my face

But the garbage man

He took the trash away



These city streets

Are makin' me crazy

I tried to eat rocks

But they have no taste



My face is a wreck

My brain's decayed

I need a fix 'n I'll be OK

These city streets

Are makin' me crazy

I'm chewing on glass but I

Don't even bleed

I don't even bleed

I don't even bleed

I don't even bleed



I'll pray tonight

To the king of kings

Won't you pull me out

I'd rehabilitate those city streets

You know I can't keep straight

Will I murder somebody?

Well ya can't fool fate

Ya can't fool fate

Ya can't fool fate

No, you can't fool fate



I need some help, I need some help,

I'm falling apart

Will I die in my sleep

Or will I live in the streets

In agony?
