So patiently I’ll be your patient, Sedately I’ll do my time
I’ve learned my place, and I know my station started the race and fell behind
Hand me my gown show me my room No waiting round, I’ll need it
soon And “soon” is now, I’ve seen the signs
I’m ready for my medication time...
Sometimes a man can’t ease the craving Somebody hide me from it all
My sanity is way past saving So bounce me from your padded walls
The world around me is looking hazy My head keeps pounding, I done gone crazy
A safe retreat will suit me fine I’m ready for my medication time...
The guy next door, he’s more messed up than me He’s crying in room 101, I’m smiling
in room 103 I’m tired of watching the clock drag that second hand
Won’t someone break the glass and free all this sand?
So trustingly I’ll drink your potion For therapy, I’ll eat your pills Baptise my
sins on distant oceans Come euthanise my precious ills
My arms are bound, my feet are chained Lobotomise this aching brain
Come pull the cork, cut me a line
I’m ready for my medication time I’m ready for my medication time
