lyrics

Medicine Intoxication
We are young and we are free
In the fangs of democracy
You and Me
In a modern slavery

Medicine intoxication
Just awake to work for nation
Need my hands but not my brain
Turn off the light and put myself in chains

Medicine takes the symptoms of suffering
But death still waits inside
The main thing is to be controlled by the pills
Sick of life but still dressed right

Working like a machine
Sell your time
This is daily routine
Your routine
Swallow your medicine
Keep us calm
Like its juice or something
Pay the price for nothing

Medicine takes the symptoms of suffering
But death still waits inside
The main thing is to be controlled by the pills
Sick of life but still dressed right
Under the pressure of the meritocracy
We all forgot about our right to feel ill.
Dominated by the fear of loosing quality
Make us swallow the pill

“We don’t need the green, There is something I can invent!
A tiny thing, blue pink, purple or white!
No sickness, no headache anymore
The tablets and pills are the solution I have the problem for!”

“Take this pill and you’ll be stronger
Take this pill and you’ll go bonkers
Take this pill and you’ll be smaller
Take this pill and you will smell colors”

“Take this pill for being a unicorn
Take this pill for being a frog!
Take this pill, it´s for free!
Take this pill to fit in society!”

The fear permits it
Greed is in need
Don’t stay in bed
Take a tablet

The fear permits it
Greed is in need
Run like a mill
Take this damn pill

The fear permits it
Greed is in need

Working like a machine
Sell your time
This is daily routine
Your routine
Swallow your medicine
Keep us calm
Like its juice or something
Pay the price for nothing
I am sick of heteronomy
I don´t need your symptoms to feel ill
Throw the pills and tablets in our throat
But I missed the point where medicine starts to taste good
