Though I don't write a whole lot of letters

I figured I'd better say something now

I saw the thing about the heartsick shut in

Thought that I should cut in

And tell you 'bout how

It woke me from a life long day dream

While I'd been aging you wrote it all down

And though I recognized the words when I read them

I know I never said them to people out loud

To "Desperate Bellowing Magazine"

It sure does have a familiar ring

You might say I fit the description

Renew my subscription

To "Miserable Freak Show Quarterly"

Every back note I saw spoke to me

Acknowledging it's my addiction

Renew my subscription

I wanna be a much better person

Instead I worsen with every day

But there's a drug whose name I'm not sure of

Which I need more of to feel okay

They told me exercise and diet

If I would try it, would cure my ills

But though I'm already past my quota

I want another load o' those magic pills

Refill my prescription

To whatever that thing is

That makes the carpet stop turning into snakes

In lieu of my coming conniption

Refill my prescription

And free me from where I don't want to be

Standing outside the unopened pharmacy

Before I confirm your prediction
