Cover art for Lust For Life lyrics by Iggy Pop

It's about quitting heroin, as well as falling off the wagon and doing it again. "had it in my ear before" refers to shooting heroin - junkies often run out of spots to shoot up and they have to be creative in places to shoot up (in the ear, in between your toenail and toe, etc)

erm...in betwwen your toes is possible, only because ive heard it done by amy winehouse but there are no veins in you ear that a take a hit, arms,hands, then groin,legs..bad.. thats why people get abcesses and neck which is amazingly dangerous and feet...painful so ive heard, well a doctor tried to stick a needle in my foot and it was a stupid thing to do,it hurt even before it was in a quarter way, he almost got kicked in the head and was a cheeky nasty little man!
