If I ever turn 40

My whole head will wreck with memories of

The summer we turned 19

You never saw 20

That summer held standards of hope

So high that you swung from a rope and I know

That you lost your insurance

But kept your dependence to dope

They profit more from disease than the cure

We’re broke but you’re squeezed ‘til there’s no motivation

‘Cause you’re preconditioned

Prescription, dependence, don’t seem all that different

But you’re so innocent

You don’t know what hurts you

Relying on friends to teach

But I know you like the back of my bottom teeth

And they want you rotting like the back of my bottom teeth

They profit more from disease than the cure

We’re broke but you’re squeezed ‘til there’s no motivation

They profit more from disease than the cure

I’ll build you a Killdozer and run the whole system over

But the pills that you were fed only made you brain dead

A taste of the haze prescribed ‘til dependence

A case of a doctor bribed by a pharm rep

To treat a disease you were not diagnosed with

To treat a disease you were not diagnosed with

In business to make us statistics

A case of a doctor bribed by a pharm rep

To treat a disease you were not diagnosed with

To treat a disease you were not diagnosed with

In business to make us statistics
