lyrics

I went to the doctor the other day
told her my world was dull and grey
she said just take three of these
and soon you’ll be happy

I hated my job, hated my life
I hated my dog, I hated my wife
what I needed to be free
was my behavior treated chemically


[1st chorus]

And I’m happy now
til the pills wear off
with just a few little love me’s
I’m no longer in need of therapy

so I’m happy now
‘til the pills wear off
happiness obtained pharmeceutically
It’s better living through chemistry


[2nd verse]
Now I float down the street
with a smile on my face
unhappy memories completley erased
now with one trip to the pharmacy
my attitude changed immediatly

now I love my job, I love my life
I love my dog ,not so sure about my wife
may need to get her help like me
and then she can also be.....

[2nd chorus]
[lead with some spoken drug names]

[3rd verse]

went back to the doctor to refill my plate
place was covered in police tape
now I have to live without help
and I suck just like everyone else

now I hate my job, I hate my life
I ate my dog, ran away from my wife
now with no more little love me’s
I may need a lobotomy

(final chorus)

so I’m unhappy now
cause the pills wore off
without the help from the pharmacy
I don’t know how to be me

so I’m unhappy now
cause the pills wore off
without the help of modern chemistry
I don’t know what’s to become of me

[more drug names]
