Do we need medication?



Grab a pill


Grab a pill with chemicals filled
Endocrine to shut down not to feel
We are told this is to help us cope
But through it all we can't find hope


Without hope we get more depressed
Another pill down our throats pressed
Making us numb, making us dumb
Walking zombies we have become


A cereal bowl of pills for breakfast
Taking vitamins that are unbeneficed
Colourant, flavour, preservative - poison
Our money for big pharma - foison


So grab another pill, to fill the void
Listen to the mumbo jumbo of Freud
Another script to fill to make you dead
As long as you never have a clear head


Grab a pill, serotonin to kill
Endorphins and oxytocin to still
Without dopamine you won't feel reward
All the doctors and pharma have an accord
