Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
I 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
[Chorus]
Oh-oh, catch that buzz
Love is the drug I'm thinking of
Oh-oh, can't you see
Love is the drug for me
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
[Verse 3]
Late that night I parked my car
Staked my place in the singles bar
Face to face, toe to toe
Heart to heart as we hit the floor
[Verse 4]
Lumbered up, limbo down
The locked embrace, the stumble round
I say go, she say yes
Dim the lights, you can guess the rest
[Chorus]
Oh-oh, catch that buzz
Love is the drug I'm thinking of
Oh-oh, can't you see
Love is the drug, got a hook in me
Oh-oh, get that buzz
Love is the drug I'm thinking of
Oh-oh, can't you see
Love, the drug for me
[Bridge]
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh
[Outro]
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Love is, love is, love is the drug
