A good night, the best in a long time
A new friend turned me on to an old favorite
Nothing better than a dealer who's high
Be high, convince them to buy

What's my drug of choice?
Well, what have you got?
I don't go broke
And I do it a lot

Seems so sick to the hypocrite norm
Running their boring drills
But we are an elite race of our own
The stoners, junkies, and freaks
Are you happy?
I am, man
Content and fully aware
Money, status, nothing to me
Because your life's empty and bare

What's my drug of choice?
Well, what have you got?
I don't go broke
And I do it a lot
I do it a lot

Yeah
Yeah
You can't understand a user's mind
But try, with your books and degrees
If you let yourself go and opened your mind
I'll bet you'd be doing like me and it isn't so bad

What's my drug of choice?
Well, what have you got?
I don't go broke
And I do it a lot, said I do it a lot
I do it a lot
I do it a lot, said I do it a lot

    My Interpretation

    So yeah, this song is overtly about drug use, and my parents weren't too happy that I liked the song, but I also interpreted it more broadly as to be about defending something that society says is indefensible. Any kind of person who is looked down on, told that they are sick, disgusting, and textbook-analyzed by some expert who went to college but has never been in that situation. This is from that maligned person's point of view, and whether right or wrong, they are defending themselves not by denying, but by being proud and reveling in it. In that sense it was liberating.
