Medication

I get sick of living in the city
Everyone's a liar and a thief
If the cancer don't
The taxman's gonna get you
It the women don't
The doctors let you bleed
I don't wanna hang around with you
Don't wanna see you burn
I don't wanna see you turn blue
I wanna see the sun
Gimme, gimme, gimme medication
Gimme medication to kill this hole
Gimme, gimme, gimme medication
Gimme medication to kill this, kill this hole
Everyone's steppin' on each other
Shootin', snortin', smokin' all they can
I wish that blood was thicker than water
'Cause drinkin' dirty water kills a man
I don't wanna hang around with you
Don't wanna see you burn
I don't wanna see you turn blue
I wanna see the sun
Gimme gimme gimme medication
Gimme medication to kill this hole
Gimme gimme gimme medication
Gimme medication to kill this hole
I get sick of livin in the city
Everyone's a liar and a thief
If the cancer don't the taxman's gonna get ya
If the women don't the doctors' let you bleed
Repeat chorus 2x
