[ Featuring Vanessa Amorosi ]
Drugs taught me a lesson
How not to sleep at night
Drugs taught me a lesson
Things just don't work out right
That's one
Hard lesson to learn
Drugs taught me a lesson
How to cheat and steal
Yeah, drugs taught me a lesson
Just how low can you feel
And that's one
Hard lesson to learn
Drugs taught me a lesson
You can never get real high
Drugs taught me a lesson
It's so easy to die
And that's one
Hard lesson to learn
Drugs taught me a lesson
How to lose control
Drugs taught me a lesson
Just how to lose my soul
And that's one
Hard lesson to learn
And if you've got money to burn
You've still got to wait your turn
And that's one hard lesson to learn
Drugs taught me a lesson
I learned it the hard way
Drugs taught me a lesson
Can't believe I'm here today
And that was one
Hard lesson to learn
Hard lesson to learn
Hard lesson to learn
Hard lesson to learn
Hard lesson to learn
Hard lesson to learn
(Hard lesson)
Hard lesson to learn
(Yes, it is)
Hard lesson to learn
(So hard, so hard, hard, yeah)
Hard lesson to learn"
