I was gonna clean my room,
until I got high
I was gonna get up and find the broom,
but then I got high
My room is still messed up
and I know why, (why man?)

'Cuz I got high
Because I got high
Because I got high

I was gonna go to class,
before I got high
I coulda' cheated and I coulda passed,
but I got high
I'm taking it next semester
and I know why (why man?)
'Cuz I got high
Because I got high
Because I got high

I was gonna go to court,
before I got high
I was gonna pay my child support,
but then I got high (No, you weren't)
They took my whole pay check,
and I know why, (why man?)
'Cuz I got high
Because I got high
Because I got high

I wasn't gonna run from the cops
but I was high, (I'm serious, man)
I was gonna pull right over and stop,
but I was high
Now I'm a paraplegic,
and I know why (why, man?)
'Cuz I got high
Because I got high
Because I got high

I was gonna make love to you,
but then I got high, I'm serious
I was gonna eat your pussy too,
but then I got high
Now I'm jacking off and I know why,
'Cuz I got high,
because I got high,
because I got high

I messed up my entire life,
because I got high
I lost my kids and wife,
because I got high
Now I'm sleeping on the sidewalk,
and I know why, (why man?)
'Cuz I got high,
because I got high,
because I got high

I'm gonna stop singing this song,
because I'm high
I'm singing this whole thing wrong,
because I'm high
And if I don't sell one copy
I'll know why, (why man?)
'Cuz I'm high
Because I'm high,
because I'm high
