Lyrics

Boys and girls step up To the doctor's stage Take a Dixie cup A few purple pills Of pharmaceutical love To help you rise above Your peers. Let me clear up Any doubts you have And steer you in the right direction: Intelligence is now packaged and resting On your drug store shelves, dust-collecting, Waiting for the young boys and girls Who care about impressing a world That likes impressers, impersonating bright others, Inflating egos and ability like flat tires filled with holes - When the pill wears out, out floats the know, The knowledge, the genius that flows from all those College-learned. You too can have what you yearn - Brilliance! Wits! And smarts! That will lift you from the pits Of shitty twits that cart around kids in cars that act as shopping carts Holding together those whiny lives that ache their slowing hearts. Rise above it all with these tiny pills! Sad? Tired? Let me cure your ills! And fill soul sores with glowing warmth And energy and happiness, self-create sunshine Happy all the time! But as you know money can buy This type of happiness, and pricey pills gives twice the thrill So empty your wallet right into my pocket I'll lock your soul away so you yourself can't stop this Reaction, just sit back and relax as the pills start slicing through Dead thoughts and old facts, and watch as your focus grows And becomes erect like a big sex organ you never knew you had. Watch for side effects, loopy love drives, days and nights Blend like puddles of soupy cum on a slutty bed, Dreams and thoughts collide; you'll catch fake landslides In the corners of your eyes. But don't worry, click your heels three times And tell yourself it'll be alright.

In 10 years time, our smart kids will walk straight lines A zombie nation, low and slow from highs Synthetically created, related only by their jaded statements. Degraded to simple "Foundation" status, Malleable human rocks to be knocked around And built upon by the men with the silk socks And white lab coat smocks that keep dirty work From staining imported suit frocks. Pill creators are the new clergy class Slinking around under pretty glass With a lab for a church and no time for mass Parishioners are hopped up little leaguers Speedy high school cheerleaders Eager to jump as high as they feel Church leaders with meager reserves of moral ideals The blind leading those with dilated eyes, A slowww moving medicated mass with hands at their sides!

A rowdy kid is simply a rowdy kid Who shouldn't be doped up for what his parents did: They raise babies like Chia pets, give Ôem food and watch em grow. Don't they know that children are roses, delicate flowers unfolding in phases, Fragile wonders that can wither away if play, love, sun, and warmth don't fill their days? Evil parents raise children In the shadows of a towering career In the shadows of a dark house lit by TV sitcom cheer, In the shadows of Internet babysitters, computers that steer Young minds to any page that glitters, babysitters that transmit clips of pop culture Right to the soul like intravenous drips of brain-rot causing, clot creating, thought blocking, brain wave stopping potent poison medicine. We fuck up our children and then get mad when they act fucked up. We suck up to professional pill slingers, well-dressed drug flingers Who whistle all the way to the bank! Who whistle all the way to the bank!
