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
