T'ain't no big thing, to wait for the bell to ring,
T'ain't no big thing, the toll of the bell,
Aggravated, spare for days, I troll downtown, the red light place,
Jump up, bubble up, what's in store?
Love is the drug, and I need to score!
Showing out, showing out, hit and run,
Boy meets girl where the beat goes on,
Stitched up tight, can't shake free,
Love is the drug got a hook on me!
Oh, oh -oh, catch that buzz, love is the drug I'm thinking of,
Oh, oh -oh, can't you see, love is the drug for me?
Oh, oh -oh, oh! | / /__/ / / | / / / / |

Late at night, I park my car, stake my place in the singles bar,
Face to face, toe to toe, heart to heart, as we hit the floor,
Lumber up, limbo down, the locked embrace, stumble 'round,
I say, "Go!", she say, "Yes!"
Dim the lights... you can guess the rest!
Oh, oh -oh, catch that buzz, love is the drug I'm thinking of,
Oh, oh -oh, can't you see, love is the drug got a hook in me?
Oh, oh -oh, get that buzz, love is the drug I'm thinking of,
Oh, oh -oh, can't you see, love is the drug for me?
Oh, oh - oh! | / / / / | Oh, oh - oh! | / / / / |

Oh, oh -oh, oh! Love... is...
Love... is... love... is... the... drug!
