Green Day - Best Thing in Town Lyrics lyrics

[chorus:]

the shot - i need the antidote - shot - gimme the antidote

the shot - i want the antidote - i guess i need a lot

this is a fucking addict - where you bring on designer dearth

it comes an' breeds dependency just about everywhere

you hand out on the free shots to cover me, 'n' hover me

and then they beat you till you're comatose

the quintessence of diligence

nothing more compulsive than my common sense

turns out that all is counterfeit - i waste your fucking hit

the shot - why not become the poison - shot - that bears the antidote

the shot - why not become the poison - antidote
