Lyrics[]
I wanna get high I wanna get high I wanna get high And listen to The Cure all night I wanna get high I wanna get high I wanna get high And listen to The Cure all night One Hundred Years All Cats Are Grey A Short Term Effect Fire in Cairo In Between Days I wanna get high I wanna get high I wanna get high And listen to The Cure all night 10:15 on a Saturday night The Same Deep Water as You Always Jumping Someone Else's Train But all of Pornography Especially side two I wanna get high I wanna get high I wanna get high And listen to The Cure all night I wanna get high I wanna get high I wanna get high And listen to The Cure all night A Forest, Secrets Hold The Figurehead Primary, Charlotte Sometimes Let's Go To Bed I wanna get high I wanna get high I wanna get high
Comments by John Darnielle About this Song[]
- "Speaking of singles, Peter Hughes, on hearing 'Get High and Listen to the Cure' -- written for Goths, attempted in the studio sessions in versions that lacked the snap of this demo -- felt certain this was the song that would make us a household name. I'm fond of the song, though I don't share his conviction that it's the Mountain Goats song the whole world has been waiting to hear. Should this release prove Peter right, I will be quite content to concede the point." -- 2019-08-12, Merge Records press release
