Another dream goes up in smoke, huh
And so I fire me up another toke
Yeah, I'm commin' on
I've got master plans by the dozens
A-flashin' thru my brain when I get buzzin'
Whoa, suddenly they're gone
All that inspiration runnin' through your head
Instant stimulation
Oh, you're runnin' on, whoo
You got high hopes
And they're up in smoke
Up all night, tweakin' every detail
The way I've got it, this could never fail
Hey, this could be the big one
High hopes come and go with the high
But comin' down, fade away and die
High hopes are nothin' more than a dream
They all get wasted, yeah
All that inspiration runnin' through your head
Instant stimulation
You're runnin' on, oh
You got high hopes
You're livin' on high hopes
Whoo, high hopes
Oh yeah, but they're wasted
Hey
Watch it, uh
Now listen
All that talk is gettin' nothin' done
Ain't it hard to move when your body's numb
Put it off another day
High hopes come and go with the high
And coming down, fade away and die
High hopes, they're nothin' more than a dream
They all get wasted, yeah
All that inspiration runnin' thru your head
Instant stimulation
They're givin' you, oh
You got, whoah Lord, high hopes
You're livin' on high hopes
You go high hopes
High hopes, ah yeah
High hopes
Keep livin' on high hopes
High hopes
