Pill Popper
one, two, three
I take some of these
makes me feel awake
one, two, three
these put me to bed
it's just for a little while
I don't have a problem
why are you tripping?
are you crazy? my mind isn't slipping
I remember last week
it's fuzzy but I know enough
I am not a pill popper
so what if I take more
than Elvis Presley or Janis Joplin
switch on, switch off
I know I can stop
don't you dare touch those though
cuz they are my lifeline
one, two, three
all at one time
it works faster
than a thought running through your mind
one, two, three
four, five, six
that is how many now it takes
to put me to sleep
I can't remember last week
but I remember yesterday
it's fuzzy but I know enough
cuz....
I am not a pill popper
so what if I take more
than Elvis Presley or Janis Joplin
switch on, switch off
I know I can stop
don't you dare touch those though
cuz they are my lifeline
