drug addict song

I heard this song this morning, I think it was by the Soberettes or something like that, but I'm not sure I heard right, and I can't find anything on it around the net

Don't suppose anyone could tell me the lyrics?
It was sort of a "doo-wop" kind of song, all I can remembr is the chorus:

Shoot-up, I wanna wanna Shoot-up I wanna wanna, nooooow!

very catchy song...and funny.
Anyone know what I'm talking about?

Yeah I heard it today when I was driving to uni. It was quite funny and very catchy. I don't have anything to add apart from that though :lookarou:

They haven't got a CD available or a single. It's impossible to find on fileshare but that's probably more to do with the fact people can't spell the artist's name. It's only available on an SBS compilation called Whatever... More info here

They played it on Super Request quite a bit a few weeks back... minor revival.

And it starts off with, 'When Johnny grows up, he wants to be an astronaut! When Daisy grows up, she wants to be a ... something. When I grow up I wanna be, a drug addict, I wanna be down and out...[/i]

Very catchy song, not half as catchy as a little to the left, dear...

the soubrettes

If you go to http://www.sbs.com.au/whatever/index.php3 you can find a page dedicated to the soubrettes and you can listen to their songs.
