What's at stake?

OK, it's not really what the song is about (at all!!!), but after reading this from RW yesterday I couldn't get this Mighty Mighty Bosstones tune out of my head.  And certain political ideologies are kinda like drug addiction, so maybe I'm not too far off here.

The audio on this video isn't very good, and it's one of their more indecipherable covers anyway. But here are Dicky and the boys singing about what's at stake.  With a little help from Jack "Choke" Kelly from Slapshot.

What's at Stake?

The Mighty Mighty Bosstones (via Slapshot)

Stick that needle right through your arm, do everything that does you harm

So you're lying there on the floor, see ya staggering out the door

Try it and you like it and you know you can, take it on

Take your real life till you soon discovered where you are,

You don't know, so you're at the bottom with a nose full of blow

Don't know what you're doin to me, so you're lying there so helplessly

Get yourself back up before it's too late, or a life of pain will be your fate

You don't care about anyone, just as long as you have your fun

Or as long as you get your fix, now you're taking a deep six

Try it and you like it and you know you can take it on

Take your real life till you soon discovered where you are,

You don't know so you're at the bottom with a nose full of blow

Don't know what you're doin to me so you're lying there so helplessly

Get yourself back up before it's too late or a life of pain will be your fate

Higher baby, get higher baby, get higher baby, don't ever come down don't do it!

Now you triy it and you like it and you know you can take it on

Take your real life till you soon discovered where you are,

You don't know so you're at the bottom with a nose full of blow

Don't know what you're doin to me so you're lying there so helplessly

Get yourself back up before it's too late or a life of pain will be your fate

What's at stake [4x]
