You're feeling over the hill
Chasing powder and pills
Still you don't mind the taste
Of the slow burning waste
Until you feel like trash
You might as well have a gas
Until you feel that crash
You might as well have blast
Deep down in your heart
You know you can't hide
Still you know what you're running from
Better than I
And when they ask you
You say the joker is wild
And when they ask you why
You say the joker is wild
When your skin starts to crawl
And your fingers twitch
And your veins are screaming
For some kinda fix
Well they ask you why
You say the joker's wild
If there was only a way
To make you understand
That the game you're playing
Has gotten out of hand
And when they ask you why
You way the joker is wild
And when they ask you why
You say the joker is wild
