Lyrics
One pill leads to another one
Two pills leads to a third
Three, four, five, there's a monkey on your back
And now the whole fucking thing is absurd
One pill leads to another one
Two pills leads to a third
Three, four, five, there's a monkey on your back
And now the whole fucking thing is absurd
Okay, now you gon' see the doc
I mean go see the D.R
He signs that little green card
You take that down to D.R
This time when I say D.R
I mean Duane Reade, the store
Plane runs every street corner on the eastern seaboard
He'll get you what you need
Get you right, get you lean on
Gonna bring you to your knees
But it ain't nothing you can't sleep on
If you out in California and you jonesin' even harder
It's a Walgreens on the corner
Ain't no police on the corner
He'll get you straight and out
Get you loaded, get you sorted
Get you up, get you off
Bring you down to your own
See we don't cop from Avon Barksdale
Or from a Save On tone sale
It's easier than buying barbells at a yard sale
This shit sells itself
It ain't like this shit's a hard sell
Doctors, the pharmacists, the company
They all down
They'll mix it up for you like bartenders do a cocktail
They got the hottest package
They run the largest cartel
Poppin', poppin', poppin' pills, pills
Poppin', poppin', poppin' pills, pills
Poppin', poppin', poppin' pills, pills
Poppin', poppin', poppin' pills, pills
Poppin', poppin', poppin' pills, pills
Poppin', poppin', poppin' pills, pills
Started taking six a day
'Til your headache goes away
And your panic goes away
And you're feeling pretty great
It's like a mini getaway
But then that goes away
So you go back to the clinic
'Cause the medic's selling yay
Now you're taking ten a day
Can't feel your face
Self-medicate
Baby, I'm a basehead
But you ain't alone, homie
No, but so are the every folks on it
Oh so many more than have a crack or coke problem
Pro ballers, politicians all swallow whole bottles
Role models want it bad
We all cope with dope problems
English teachers, drum mechanically
The singers, famous actors
Recently get faded
Rappers even seem to become addicts
I know all kind of people that have all kind of dependencies
Crack, H, ecstasy
Benzamine and Hennessy
But far beyond any of the drugs I just finished mentioning
More I know have died off of shit prescribed medically
Poppin', poppin', poppin' pills, pills
Poppin', poppin', poppin' pills, pills
Poppin', poppin', poppin' pills, pills
Poppin', poppin', poppin' pills, pills
Poppin', poppin', poppin' pills, pills
Poppin', poppin', poppin' pills, pills
The herbalist got antsy when I ask a simple question
If nature has the answers, what's the deal with all the medicine?
I know a guy who was prescribed a cure for his depression
It only made him nuts, he went from one to poppin' seven
Uh-oh, I pop a tab to clear my indigestion
Now I'm coughing up a storm and that's another new prescription
So now I can't control the runs, I ran into the kitchen
To pop a cure to counter that and now I'm seeing visions
I woke up in the psych ward but the doctor didn't listen
She said I must have ADD and OCD both mixed in
She shoved a funnel in my mouth and filled it full of Ritalin
Then gaffled my insurance card and took a trip to Italy
Insidiously body laying on the table trembling
Is this the end of me?
Where is the sympathy?
Where's the humanity?
This is insanity, my liver's gonna break
And all that I was trying to do was fix a stomach ache
Poppin', poppin', poppin' pills, pills
Poppin', poppin', poppin' pills, pills
Poppin', poppin', poppin' pills, pills
Poppin', poppin', poppin' pills, pills
Poppin', poppin', poppin' pills, pills
Poppin', poppin', poppin' pills, pills
Daddy? What are those?
Those look delicious
Can I try one?
