Michael

[Verse 1]

Michael wrote a musical about pharmaceuticals

The best song was called "the drugs don't work"

Pretty cynical, open night was miserable

I'm not here to watch you preach about pills

You should've seen her in Central Pasadena

Debbie didn't eat for eight whole days

Send a message to APA Clarics

You can't cure it when it ain't a disease

[Pre Chorus]

You're the only God that you need to believe in

Don't waste your time hanging onto a feeling of sickening guilt

You should’ve left, you were trying your best

I'm not gonna try to stop you from leaving

But if you wanna come home

Well I'll be here weeping

Cause we love you, kid

It don't matter what you did

We're all part of this mess

[Chorus]

Don't count me up babe

I don't need it

But I'm sick of being crazy

Sick of being crazy

I don't wanna die

But I don't wanna live like this

Don't count me up babe

I don't need it

But I'm sick of being crazy

Sick of being crazy

I don't wanna die

But I don't wanna live like this

[Verse 2]

Ben was thirteen, he kicked and he screamed

Let's call the cops, it’s ADHD

"We reckon your sons on the spectrum"

"We've got this magic drug"

"Best thing since TV"

[Pre Chorus]

You're the only God that you need to believe in

Don't waste your time hanging onto a feeling of sickening guilt

You should’ve left, you were trying your best

I'm not gonna try to stop you from leaving

But if you wanna come home

Well I'll be here weeping

Cause we love you, kid

It don't matter what you did

We're all part of this mess

[Chorus]

Don't count me up babe

I don't need it

But I'm sick of being crazy

Sick of being crazy

I don't wanna die

But I don't wanna live like this

Don't count me up babe

I don't need it

But I'm sick of being crazy

Sick of being crazy

I don't wanna die

But I don't wanna live like this

[Outro]

I don't wanna die

But I don't wanna live like this

I don't wanna die

But I don't wanna live like this

I don't wanna die

But I don't wanna live like this

I don't wanna die

But I don't wanna live like this
