mrs. greer, your son acts up in class
[]
he asks the questions that your not supposed to ask
[]
mr. greer it?s pretty plain to see
[]
your son has got ADHD
and the doctors say he needs
[] []
30 milligrams of amphetamines (go!)
[]
when i turned eight years old
[]
they put me on the pills
[]
one to focus me at school
[]
help me follow all the rules
[]
and one to keep my tears away
[*]
because little boys should never cry
[]
one help me through my day
[]
and one to help me sleep at night
[] []
and i had so few memories of what it was like before
[] []
that i took those damn pills every day since 1984.
[] []
now i recognize the system, i see what they?re really for
[] []
i?m not giving you my money, i won?t take them anymore.
[] [] [] []
i was in the dead-center of the country
when i popped my final pill
sold the rest of the bottle to some kids from Chicago
and turned towards something new
and for the first time in my life
i felt at peace with who i was
i couldn?t wait to share the new world out there
with all the people that i loved
and i had so few memories of what it was like before
that the first week off of the pills i felt like i had been reborn
now i recognize the system, i see what they?re really for
i?m not giving you my money, i won?t take them anymore.
[]
that?s when i started thinking
[]
about this society
[]
and how there?s something wrong when a kid so young?s
[]
put on amphetamines
[]
at first i blamed my parents
[*]
then the doctors then the school
[]
but if you wanna fight back look higher than that
[]
at the filthy frat cat with the big contract
[]
at the puppy-killing lab the results come back
[]
taking science-fiction and calling it fact
[]
then they steal your hope and they sell it back
[]
and if it fucks you up they don?t give a crap
[]
cuz they can still drive home in their Cadillacs
[]
making money off a game where the decks are stacked
[]
and if that?s not enough, well it?s bigger than that
[]
it?s just one of the systems's many attacks
[] [] []
on you
[] [] [] []
so whatcha gonna do?
(spoken word)
do i have so few memories of what it was like before
that i can write this song, smoke in my lungs and a bottle on the floor?
now i recognize the system(s), i see what they?re really for
i?m not giving them my money, i won?t buy it anymore.
