Quick Write: Wearing a Raincoat

Here is my 8th Quick Write.

I think the song Wearing a Raincoat is anti-drugs. I think this because of the lines "comes at a price" meaning that before the guys thought is was a good idea to smoke but now he's high and he regrets it so he's saying smoking comes at a price. Another line that makes me think that this is an anti-drugs song is "you will play the drums to help to sleep" because earlier in the song it says that you will turn to drugs to fall asleep but when it says to play the drums, it is like saying find an alternative to drugs instead of taking them to solve your problems because they won't. I definitely agree with my interpretation with the song and think you should never smoke anything whether you are in middle school or are 45, never smoke.
