You say there is some place that you gotta be To find peace of mind and serenity With a little help from modern chemistry Twenty-five dollars can buy it
Just say yes, yes Just say yes, yes
You’re sliding down a slippery slope You’re the very reason why they call it dope Yelling for someone to throw you a rope Tell all your friends, “You should try it”
Just say yes, yes Just say yes, yes
I don’t know what they’re saying Russian Roulette, I’m playing Instead I should be staying Inside a temple praying My consciousness, I’m saving For now, I’ll keep saying yes Just say yes
Yes, yes Just say yes, yes
Now I’m age forty-three Waiting by the phone for a new kidney Wishing it didn’t hurt to take a pee But that’s not gonna stop me
