Kicks Lyrics

Well, you thought you found the answer on that magic carpet ride last night
But when you wake up in the mornin' the world still gets uptight
Well, there's nothin' that you ain't tried
To fill the emptiness inside
But when you come back down, girl
Still ain't feelin' right
And don't it seem like

Kicks just keep gettin' harder to find
And all your kicks ain't bringin' you peace of mind
Before you find out it's too late, girl
You better get straight

No, but not with kicks
You just need help, girl

Well, you think you're gonna find yourself a little piece of paradise
But it ain't happened yet, so girl you better think twice
Don't you see no matter what you do
You'll never run away from you
And if you keep on runnin'
You'll have to pay the price
And don't it seem like

Kicks just keep gettin' harder to find
And all your kicks ain't bringin' you peace of mind
Before you find out it's too late, girl
You better get straight

No, you don't need kicks
To help you face the world each day
That road goes nowhere
I'm gonna help you find yourself another way

Kicks just keep gettin' harder to find
And all your kicks ain't bringin' you peace of mind
Before you find out it's too late, girl
You better get straight
And don't it seem like

Kicks just keep gettin' harder to find
And all your kicks ain't bringin' you peace of mind
Before you find out it's too late, girl
You better get straight

A pounding antidrugs warning that nevertheless treats your brain as if it has been reduced to mush already.

Cover art for Kicks lyrics by Paul Revere And The Raiders

It's about a girl who meets a guy that can provide her with drugs far more potent than the junk she's been paying for. It's about getting straightened out so she doesn't get ripped off again by a dealer that is cutting the stuff or selling placebos instead of the real thing. Don't get fooled by a jive turkey selling flour and saying it's cocaine.
