[C5] [A5]
mrs. greer, your son acts up in class
[F5]
he asks the questions that your not supposed to ask
[G5]
mr. greer it?s pretty plain to see
[C5]
your son has got ADHD
and the doctors say he needs
[G5] [C]
30 milligrams of amphetamines (go!)
[C]
when i turned eight years old
[Am]
they put me on the pills
[F]
one to focus me at school
[G]
help me follow all the rules
[C5]
and one to keep my tears away
[Am*]
because little boys should never cry
[F]
one help me through my day
[G]
and one to help me sleep at night
[Am] [E]
and i had so few memories of what it was like before
[F] [G]
that i took those damn pills every day since 1984.
[Am] [E]
now i recognize the system, i see what they?re really for
[F] [G]
i?m not giving you my money, i won?t take them anymore.
[Am] [E] [F5] [C]
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.
[C]
that?s when i started thinking
[Am]
about this society
[F]
and how there?s something wrong when a kid so young?s
[G]
put on amphetamines
[C5]
at first i blamed my parents
[Am*]
then the doctors then the school
[F]
but if you wanna fight back look higher than that
[G]
at the filthy frat cat with the big contract
[F]
at the puppy-killing lab the results come back
[G]
taking science-fiction and calling it fact
[F]
then they steal your hope and they sell it back
[G]
and if it fucks you up they don?t give a crap
[F]
cuz they can still drive home in their Cadillacs
[G]
making money off a game where the decks are stacked
[F]
and if that?s not enough, well it?s bigger than that
[G]
it?s just one of the systems's many attacks
[C] [F] [G]
on you
[C] [F] [G] [Am]
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.
