Jesse Cardin - Med Compliant (Dr. Ross Prescription)

I take these pills every day
They make the voices go away
Well not quite, but they help a little

I get these nasty side effects
They're really a pain in my neck
But at least my life is almost livable

I see my doctor every week
I think the guy's kind of a freak
But I trust him-he has degrees

Doc likes to change my medicines
He says new drugs have benefits
But I'm drowning in prescription fees

I can't remember the last time that I felt right
Can't stay awake all day or fall asleep at night
I've packed the pounds on and lost interest in most things
Even if I could find a girl I can't work my ding-a-ling

No one I know takes all these pills
My friends take drugs when they want thrills
And I wonder, what's wrong with me?

Doc asks me, Do you take your meds?
I barely nod my heavy head
I'm so tired, I can hardly see

I need someone to help me find which way is right
Just staring at the wall is no kind of life
Can't someone show me the direction I should go
Everyone's got answers but it seems nobody knows

Olanzapine, quetiapine, clozapine
Thorazine, sertraline, venlafaxine, amitriptyline

Side effects will include agitation, perspiration
Dyskinesia, akathisia, dry mouth, diabetes
Dystonia, insomnia, constipation, rectal bleeding, and in most cases death
