(Violent J)

I like to suffocate people and bite their necks

They got me in a place that ain't like the rest

And all you gotta do is try to go for the neck

And it's sedatives...sedatives...like that

Slow down, colors smear all around

Weird sounds, you in the mind of a clown

And a wicked one somehow spinnin' around

Wheel me down the hallway, arms strapped down

With sedatives

(Shaggy 2 Dope)

Hangin' all out the neck from the IV

Sedatives for the lively

Study me, ask me, no answer

I'm cuttin' your neck first chance sir

(Violent J)

White walls, white floor, small room

After sedatives, they become ballrooms

Crows fly by my window slow

Headed that way but lookin' at me though

Sedatives

Sedatives

Sedatives

Sedatives

Sedatives

Sedatives

Sedatives

Sedatives

(Shaggy 2 Dope)

I'm an accident, human malfunction at best

And I'm lookin' at a scalpel sinkin' into your chest

If I could only move, but them sedatives

You know, they're saving your life, them sedatives

Some of these other patients are strong as hell

Suffocating one creep took me long as hell

But I took his sedatives, well I thought they were sedatives

But they were only medatives

(Violent J)

I fake pain, call em' over and play dead

And yank a fistful of hair out the nurse lady's head

High on sedatives again, put me in a tiny place

Chin strap, muzzle over my face

I threw a guy off the roof first day they admitted me

I was sedated but that's when it hit me

The only time I'm at peace is when I ain't even there

God tell me, why the fuck are we here!?

(Violent J)

I want a lobotomy

No shock therapy

Come clean me nurse

Take care of me!

I suffocated the last 2 they sent in alone

They had to stick me in the chest with a shot of methadone

Recreation time, wheel me to the courtyard

Four guards in white and they might be important

And the sky is blue and I can watch trees grow

Watch leaves blow, enjoy the sedatives show

(Shaggy 2 Dope)

Well I even have my very own room these days

White straight jacket, padded walls and PJ's

But there's so many ways and every stunt I pull

I even slammed my own mouth down on the toilet bowl

For attention, maybe, not to mention a sedative

Heard one guy say "why even let it live?"

There's probably no sedatives in Hell

And that's the only reason I'm alive still!

(Violent J)

The witch is everywhere and I can see that y'all

Stabbed one nurse in the neck with a straw

A plastic straw, yeah it's flimsy and weak

But if you cork it with your thumb and hold it right...FREAK!
