The Meth Song PSA From The 90s!

If you glanced at that blurrier than blurry screen shot and thought, “What horror movie is that from?”, you’re half correct. It’s not from a movie, but it is from a PSA that mixed horror, fuckery, and music with a heaping dollop of meth. In 1995, the Partnership for a Drug-Free America, the organization behind the iconic This Is Your Brain On Drugs fried egg PSA, decided to try to make another PSA masterpiece. This time, they made a little jingle to go along with their anti-meth PSA. Who knew that Stephen Sondheim wrote the music and lyrics for PSA jingles in the 1990s? Yes, I’m assuming that Sondheim was behind poetic lyrics like, “Oh, meth. Mmm, meth! I don’t sleep and I don’t eat but I’ve got the cleanest house on the street Oh, meth. Mmm, meth!

This HSOTD comes from the Department of Why Did I Remind Myself Of This Meth Mess?. A Partnership for a Drug-Free America’s PSA, called The Meth Song, features a young meth addict furiously scrub-cleaning her bathroom with a toothbrush in between scratching at herself. And as she does that under a thin layer of that signature 90s sepia, a little jingle about meth fills your head. If meth was legal, this would be the jingle for its commercial, via Genius:

Look at me
Busy as a bee
Where’d I get all this energy?

Oh, meth
Mmmeth

I don’t sleep
And I don’t eat
But I got the biggest house on the street!
Oh meth
Mmmeth

Get these hairs all out of my face
Get these bugs all out of my place
One more hit, no time to waste!

Oooh Meth
MMMMMETH!

It’s like Hanson on meth! And here’s the whole anti-meth PSA with a pro-meth jingle. It’s Requiem For A Dream meets a Folgers commercial:

My eyes see “DON’T DO METH” but my ears hear “DO METH! DO METH!” But it turns out that the commercial was supposed to be much darker. The actress who is in the PSA once posted a different version that switched out that happy meth jingle with some 90s “Lorde doing punk” shit. Honestly, 90s me would’ve blasted this version as I painted my nails black while thinking I was so edgy that I should have Wüsthof tattooed on my ass.

Many say that The Meth Song is really catchy, but it’s not for me. It’s not like I’m going around singing, “Busy as a bee! Where did I get all this energy? Ooooh, meth, mmmmmeth!” And I just realized I typed that without listening to the song again. So it IS in my head. Damn you, Meth Song!
