Psychiatrist

[Verse 1]

Johnny got upset and drank a bottle of Sea Breeze

Well, Mommy figured out that he wasn't too happy

The family looks nice but they're rotting inside

They all hate each other but nobody knows why

So they go to the shrink, he says, "You're very nice people

But Johnny causes pain and negative feelings

He really needs help," and then Mommy starts crying

"If you give me your checkbook, we can hospitalize him"

[Chorus]

Made dependent on a doctor for your mental hell

Psychiatrist

The Ritalin pills are gonna make you well

Psychiatrist

Months of bliss, your emotional fix

Psychiatrist

Then give Daddy the bill for the therapy swill

Psychiatrist

[Verse 2]

Your doc is your drug, he's got your medication

He gets through to you better when you're under sedation

Something from your past that he won't let relax

He wishes you were dead but it makes the time last

So you sit in the day room and you watch the TV

You're never alone, under close scrutiny

Don't cause any problems, you'll end up on your back

Chock full of Thorazine and trapped like a rat

[Chorus]

Made dependent on a doctor for your mental hell

Psychiatrist

The Ritalin pills are gonna make you well

Psychiatrist

Six weeks of bliss, your emotional fix

Psychiatrist

Then give Daddy the bill for the therapy swill

Psychiatrist
