Elton John - My Elusive Drug

I'm not the same as I used to be

All the things you've heard seem hard to believe

Haven't always been good, never really been bad

Most times I've been happy, yea sometimes I've been sad

Sure I've made mistakes, haven't we all

I've been loose as a cannon and dumb as a wall

Haven't always been sober in counting my ducks

And if I look back now I've had my share of luck

But the change didn't come over night

I've been searching for you all my life

All the habits that I couldn't handle

I've swept them under the rug

In exchange for the sweetest addiction

You, my elusive drug

I'm gonna stay now, I really like it here

I may paint your picture, and I might grow a beard

There were times I was crazy couldn't handle my life

Don't think you'd have liked me not at any old price

And I've taken the pills

I got burnt out and chilled by the cold

But I've no regrets and that being said

You know cheap thrills can get pretty old
