Without A Net lyrics:
"Drug on the Market"

Home >> CD Lyrics songlist

If your kid's depressed, repressed, obsessed,
Pubescent angst disturbs your rest
When you most need the little brat to chill,
If he's untrained, crossgrained, left brained
And surely ought to be restrained,
Then Glaxo-Smith-Kline have got the right pill!

Why should you be the one to take the downer?
It isn't you that's making all that noise.
It isn't you that runs around, who fills the house with waves of sound
And other people's little girls and boys!
Why should you be the one who gets sedated?
So, when you take the Paxil off the shelf,
Rip off that childproof lid, give three to every kid
And maybe then you won't need one yourself!

We've got thorazine and dexedrine
And lots of chloropromazine
To make him be obedient and good,
But if he's still loud and overacts, we'll
Slip the rat a little Paxil
To help him have a happy, fuller childhood!

Why should you be the one to take the downer?
It isn't you that's making all that noise.
It isn't you that runs around, who fills the house with waves of sound
And other people's little girls and boys!
Why should you be the one who gets sedated?
So, when you take the Paxil off the shelf,
Rip off that childproof lid, give five to every kid
And maybe then you won't need one yourself!

If your kid's absurd, disturbed, a nerd,
Then Paxil is the magic word
To help a Mom's anxieties disappear!
We've got a shrink who thinks this pink pill,
Made by Glaxo-Smith-Kline, Inc. will
Take you from frazzled to Mom of the Year!

Why should you be the one to take the downer?
It isn't you that's making all that noise.
It isn't you that runs around, who fills the house with waves of sound
And other people's little girls and boys!
Why should you be the one who gets sedated?
So, when you take the Paxil off the shelf,
Rip off that childproof lid, give ten to every kid
And maybe then you won't need one yourself!

Why should you be the one to take the downer?
It isn't you that's making all that noise.
It isn't you that runs around, who fills the house with waves
of sound
And other people's little girls and boys!
Why should you be the one who gets sedated?
So, when you take the Paxil off the shelf,
Rip off that childproof lid, give lots to every kid
And maybe then you won't need one yourself!

If your cherub shows ingratitude
He isn't bad, just ill.
So if he gives you attitude
Give him the pill!
