Under the influence
Most of us would never
play Russian roulette
but we'll take a drink
from someone we just met
you won't go in the army
because you might be shot
but you'll run the health risk
of smoking pot
you won't rob a bank
because your actually sane
but you'll break the law
to snort cocaine
you know murder
is a terrible sin
yet you'll kill yourself
injecting heroine
You won't sky dive
in fear of going 'plunk'
but you play the game
of driving drunk
